Autonomous bike shelters: the choice of solar energy!

To meet the growing demands of its customers, Abriplus has decided to integrate solar solutions, making bicycle shelters self-sufficient in electricity. Installed on the roofs of flat-roofed shelters, photovoltaic panels provide you with turnkey, sustainable electricity management solutions for your shelters.

SELF-CONSUMPTION SHELTERS

Our photovoltaic slab models have been specially developed for our shelters, and we can offer you the most suitable equipment (number, power, panel surface area) according to your specific needs (electrical equipment consumed) and the location of the furniture. Several types of flat-roofed shelters can accommodate photovoltaic panels, including Pescara, Kompact, Naturelli and NOMAD. They can be used to offset the energy required by :

• VAE and TROT-E-PARK charging stations in bicycle shelters
• Access management systems
• Lighting
• Opening systems…

WHAT IS THE PROCESS?

Here are the steps you’ll probably go through when applying for a shelter with photovoltaic panels:

Request a quote: a sales representative contacts you

A member of our sales team will contact you to find out more about your project and your needs, and to provide further details.

Sunshine study

The sales representative in charge of your project will carry out a free sunshine study of the area where your shelter will be installed. Using a software program, we’ll be able to estimate the potential for energy production, based on obstacles, surrounding buildings and the exposure of the future shelter. This step is essential to ensure that thesolar bike shelter will function properly. All the elements required to build the shelter must be in place, and the area in which the photovoltaic panels will be installed must receive sufficient sunlight throughout the year. Our team puts its technical expertise at your service to create a secure, custom-built bicycle shelter that’s perfectly adapted to your needs, particularly in terms of energy and photovoltaics.

An estimate is sent to you

If the sunshine study is positive, we’ll send you a quotation specifying the deadline, the full price… All you have to do is validate it, and production can begin!
