Compact Rooftop Power Stations: Robust and Reliable - These Modules Are Compact
In an era marked by escalating electricity costs and growing environmental consciousness, mini solar plants are gaining traction. Germany alone has over 700,000 registered balcony power plants, with numbers on the rise. These compact power plants, positioned advantageously for small balconies and mobile applications, offer environmentally friendly energy generation, even in urban environments.
The German legal framework supports this progress, streamlining and promoting the installation of plug-in solar systems with a maximum infeed capacity of 800 watts – as detailed in the solar package 1. The mini solar plants, however, often face challenges when installed on balconies due to the weight and bulkiness of conventional glass-glass modules. To solve this problem, lightweight and flexible "Flexi-Modules" have been introduced.
The Flexi-Modules, manufactured by Small Power Plant, simplify the energy transition in densely populated urban areas. Ideal for small balconies or facades where large modules would be inappropriate, these flexible panels are also suitable for campers and mobile applications that may require energy storage. Easy installation involves using metal cable ties to secure the modules, with each panel coming equipped with twelve cable ties for maximum hold, even in poor weather conditions.
At just 0.3 cm thick and weighing 4.5 kg, the panels are ultra-lightweight, allowing for hassle-free, tool-free mounting. While the power rating of 225 watts per module is lower compared to conventional glass-glass panels, they offer a significant space-saving advantage. Moreover, the unique TOPCon technology developed by the Fraunhofer ISE ensures up to 30% higher yields even on cloudy days.
Small Power Plant offers a variety of attractive sets tailored to diverse needs. The entry-level set includes two flexible modules, a 400-watt Hoymiles inverter, and a connection cable. Priced at 319 euros (regularly 529 euros), the starter set is ideal for smaller applications and comes with free shipping.
Larger sets, ranging from 529 euros, provide customers with options for different configurations. You can choose from various components, including the inverter, solar extension cables, and optional storage solutions. Shipping remains free for all sets, ensuring minimal costs for customers.
In conclusion, the compactness of Flexi-Modules makes up for their performance disadvantage. By choosing a larger set, you can achieve savings per module, making it an efficient and cost-effective solar solution for urban and mobile applications.
