The project stands out by 490 Glass-BIPV modules on the roof. The average output from a single module is 115 W. So in total there are about 56.35 kWp installed on this power plant. The unique appearance was achieved by tailor-made busbars which were covered with black 3M tape and became virtually invisible on completely homogeneous black modules.
41-storey tower on the site of Eileen House in Newington Causeway, Elephant & Castle includes 329 new homes as well as shops, offices, and public space in a layout designed by local architects Allies and Morrison.
One of the challenges we faced and solved in this project was that the solar module had to be of an asymmetrical shape. Then the solar modules had to have a unique, custom-made connection diagramme, and that's not all. Did it work? Of course!
