An architectural-integrated project installing solar roofing tiles on public buildings (e.g. schools, community centers) to preserve aesthetic design while generating renewable energy.
Key Features:
Solar tiles (≈ 50 W each) that mimic traditional roofing materials
Fire-resistant, waterproof design; compatible with existing roof structure
Combined with thermal solar collectors for hot water demand
Key Features:
Installation of high-efficiency solar panels with anti-soiling technology
Grid-tie inverters with backup battery storage (20 kWh) for cloudy days or peak demand
Monitoring dashboard for energy production, usage, and CO₂ savings
Impact:
Generates ~30-40% of building’s electricity needs
Lowers heating costs via solar-thermal component
Serves as a demonstrator to educate public and stakeholders
Impact:
Estimated reduction of 150 metric tons of CO₂ per year
Lowered local electricity costs by ~40%
Created local jobs in construction and ongoing maintenance
