 Onyx Solar has supplied 64 pieces of mono-crystalline glass with size 3,100 x 1,744 mm (10.17 x 5.72 ft.) and a nominal power of 626 Wp per unit.

 

The PV glass has been installed without the frame, fixed by a spider system, which provides greater visual continuity to the canopy. Thanks to the photovoltaic colonnade, a shaded walkway area has been created, providing an enjoyable experience for visitors.

This extra-large photovoltaic glass has been customized following the clients' requirements. In that case, North Sydney Council had the objective of refurbishing an industrial park in a green platform with plants and modern architecture to produce clean energy where people could learn about sustainability in everyday life.

 

Photovoltaic Canopy was the perfect solution to create a modern colonnade that provides shade for walking near Parramatta River and reducing the energy demand of the complex.

This project has a medium cell density. There are similar canopy projects with high cell density like Mohamed V University in Morocco or La Trobe University located in Victoria (Australia).
