Applications
The FuturaSun FU500M Silk Premium is a versatile solar panel suitable for a wide range of installations, including:
- Residential rooftops: Efficiently power homes with limited roof space.
- Commercial installations: Meet energy needs for businesses and reduce electricity costs.
- Industrial systems: Ideal for factories and warehouses with large energy demands.
- Solar farms: Maximize energy output in utility-scale projects.
- Community solar projects: Provide shared solar energy solutions for multiple households.
Energy Production Estimates
Based on the average sunlight hours in Spain:
- Northern Spain (1,300–1,400 HSP): ~700 kWh/year per panel.
- Central Spain (1,500–1,600 HSP): ~800 kWh/year per panel.
- Southern Spain (1,700–1,800 HSP): ~900 kWh/year per panel.
For example, a 5.4kW system using these panels could generate 24kWh/day in Central Spain, meeting the average energy needs of a household.
Installation Scenarios
1. Inclined Roofs
- Space required per panel: 2.39m².
- Panels can be mounted flush to the roof, reducing shading and maximizing space utilization.
2. Flat Roofs
- Panels must be mounted at an angle (e.g., 30°), requiring spacing between rows to avoid shading.
- Example: For 2 panels, the space required is 9.16m² with 1 meter of spacing between rows.
