Photovoltic Shelter
The SNAIL shelter is an innovative covering solution facilitating the production of electricity from solar sources.
SNAIL was created to serve a wide range of demands and with its dynamic and modular design can be tailor-made to meet individual client needs.
Occupying a relatively contained space (min. 14.5m²), the structure hosts KLOBEN SUNCASE MX 60 highly efficient photovoltaic modules with an overall power capacity of 1.840 kWp, generating electricity to be used by the producers themselves, sold to the network or used to charge any type of electric vehicle.
Ideal for bike sharing services, SNAIL is designed for any situation in which shading and/or protection from the elements is required.
The attractive and functional design of this solid structure provides a large surface area which may be used for advertising space and may incorporate a security package including a webcam and specially designed lighting system.
SNAIL is both an ecological and intelligent solution - offering a wise investment considering the government incentives available and contributing to the protection of our environment. Every base SNAIL module reduces CO2 emissions by1,214 kg per year.
SNAIL is a modular product, entirely adaptable to fit any space and with the option to house bicycles and motorcycles and include charging facilities for electric vehicles. Security and locking systems may also be included.
