1. The
most
Innovative
Product
in
the
Solar
Industry:
SOLAR
TILE
Acquiring
energy
from
the
sun
and
effectively
exploring
solar
energy
may
be
the
best
routine
for
the
sustainable
development
of
the
human
race.
For
the
PV
industry,
the
biggest
and
most
cost
-­‐effective
position
for
use
of
solar
energy
is
not
places
such
as
desert,
island
and
mountains
that
are
far
way
from
living
areas.
Instead
all
kinds
of
roofs
in
the
densely
populated
areas
of
a
city
where
people
live,
is
the
place
where
energy
is
consumed.
The
roof
and
façade
of
a
building
are
the
best
positions
for
power
generation
through
solar
energy.
Effectively
using
the
roof
to
generate
power
is
the
most
feasible
way
for
the
PV
industry
to
move
forward.
Traditionally,
this
was
only
possible
through
Roof
Top
Solar
Power
Plants.
But
now
ADS
Solar
Solutions
introduces
the
Indian
Solar
Industry
to
a
new
product,
which
is
one
of
the
most
innovative
applications
of
Solar
Power
that
can
be
used
in
the
Infrastructure
and
Real
Estate
Sector
of
India
-­‐
Solar
Tiles.
Solar
Tiles
have
all
the
features
of
traditional
tiles
that
can
prevent
wind
and
rain
from
seeping
inside,
and
an
additional
feature
of
generating
electricity
through
Solar
Power.

2. The
key
product
features
–
• Material
used
has
High
Strength
and
Low
penetrating
rate
• Grooved
Platform
• Rain
Proofing
Design
• Heat
Cooling
Design
• Life
Cycle
of
more
than
50
years
The
various
advantages
of
Solar
PV
Tiles
are
as
following
–
A)
Better
heat-­‐isolating
effects：
PV
tiles
are
well
compacted
and
have
good
heat-­‐isolating
effects.
PV
tile
roofs
transform
about
20%
solar
energy
into
power
and
reduce
heat
gathering
on
the
roof.
Also
because
of
the
big
cooling
space
on
the
back
and
good
ventilation,
the
temperature
of
PV
tiles
does
not
rise
quickly.
B)
Better
waterproof
function
：
Because
PV
tiles
are
well
compacted,
its
water
penetrating
rate
is
only
0.5%,
less
than
one-­‐
tenth
of
that
of
normal
tiles.
So
rain
does
not
penetrate
into
the
tile
and
inside
the
roof.
C)
Power
generation
function：
Using
high
efficiency
solar
cell,
the
power
generated
by
PV
tile
is
about
70-­‐100W/m2
(depending
on
the
type
of
the
tiles.)
D)
Higher
strength
and
longer
life
cycle：
PV
Tiles
have
upto
5000N
anti-­‐inflection
strength,
much
stronger
than
1200N
of
normal
tiles.
Plus
because
of
their
extremely
low
water
penetration
rate,
these
tiles
remain
unaffected
by
such
bad
weather
conditions
as
rain,
ice,
fog
and
snow
–
thus
making
its
life
cycle
longer
by
almost
up
to
50
years.
Compared
with
normal
firing
tile,
the
maintenance
costs
of
these
tiles
are
a
big
advantage.
For
users,
higher
strength
gives
them
an
advantage
in
terms
of
decreasing
transportation
costs
and
savings
on
breakage
costs.
E)
Saving
installation
costs：
1)
Because
of
up
to
50
years
of
life
cycle,
substituting
costs
are
3
times
that
of
normal
tiles
costs.
2)
Compared
with
normal
tile
to
construct
solar
roof,
PV
tile
roof
save
steel
base
costs,
water
proofing
costs
and
heat-­‐isolating
costs
F)
Keeping
architecture
‘s
style：
Using
PV
tiles
to
construct
solar
roofs
maintains
the
color
consistency
of
the
whole
roof,
therefore
retaining
its
original
architecture
style
and
beauty.
Based
on
its
no
color
difference

3. appearance,
and
smooth
and
consistent
material
quality,
PV
tiles
help
your
roof
keep
its
traditional
style
and
at
the
same
time
look
more
beautiful.
G)
Easy
to
install：
For
new
buildings,
PV
tiles
can
be
installed
as
normal
tiles,
and
only
need
a
simple
link
of
circuit
cables.
These
are
easy
to
install
and
save
construction
time.
To
conclude
–
• PV
tiles
are
especially
suitable
for
the
roof
construction
of
low-­‐density
civil
buildings,
and
can
replace
traditional
tiles
and
realize
power
generation.
•
Compared
with
solar
module,
they
can
save
installation
costs,
water-­‐proofing
treatment
costs
and
heat-­‐isolating
costs.
• As
tiles,
they
have
better
strength,
are
light
weight
and
have
a
longer
life
cycle.
• For
BIPV,
it
maintains
the
original
architectural
style
and
looks
more
beautiful.
