Solar panels can be used to power ski lifts, allowing a ski resort to make its own electricity.
The eV+ module solution is a new flexible photovoltaic solar panel that can be curved like the windows on ski lift stations. With the eV+ module solution, power can be made from the sun and used right away by the ski resort. Ski resorts will be able to save money on their electricity bills over the course of the year thanks to this green energy production.
Positive facts about Modules eV+
The eV + solar modules are 50% times lighter than a traditional solar panel
The eV + solar panels can take curved shapes, contain 0% glass and aluminum and are 100% costumizable
The eV + module solution is 100% integrated into the building
100% of the load-bearing structures are preserved, no additional equipment to compensate for the overload induced by standard PV solar panels
A solar production increase between 8 and 12% observed on the installations in station thanks to the albedo of the snow on the eV + modules which even use monocrystaline cells at 20% of efficiency
The solar production of eV + modules, make it possible to produce 4 to 5% of the consumption of the ski lift per year
since 2019, manufacturers have been integrating eV + solutions directly into the manufacture of their devices
ROI: 12 to 15 years
