Suntex, a solar textile dedicated to outdoor surfaces
Pauline van Dongen
Solution: 32 OPV modules integrated in a light and flexible textile
Location: The Energy Show, The Netherlands
Duration of the project: 1 month
A textile to cover facades and windows
It could therefore be used as a cladding material to clad facades for new and renovated buildings. It could also be applied to glazing to provide solar protection.
ASCA® solutions can be customized specifically to the purposes of the SUNTEX project. Form factor, dimensions, connections points and power outputs can be all fit for our needs. From a designers’ point of view, visual qualities such as translucency and color help us to integrate solar SUNTEX in “the world around us” and to raise social awareness and acceptance of sustainable energy by creating visually attractive solutions.
