Solar roof tiles Autarq

German manufacturer Autarq offers solar roof tiles as an alternative. The autarq solar tiles are a choice when good taste is also on the wish list in addition to generating your own electricity. This is due to the fact that this small-sized solar tile can be harmoniously fit into the general appearance of any roof; they are difficult to distinguish from ordinary tiles.

The autarq solar shingles are custom made to match existing shingles and are glued together with the solar modules to form strong components. Durability matches the lifespan of the original tile, while maintaining water drainage and water resistance.

The roof itself does not require any changes: the weight is about the same as that of the original shingles, the load-bearing capacity of the roof structure is not reduced, and the cables and plug contacts are under the roof and therefore protected from weather influences. Thus, in combination with safe, protective extra-low voltage, autarq offers an ideal product for renovation and new buildings.

• Power generation for a 5 kW system: 4000 - 4500 kWh / year
• Energy cost savings: up to 70%

Unlike large-scale modules, autarq is also immune to shading due to parallel connections. Skylights, chimneys, ventilation pipes or television antennas have little effect on the installation and operation of such systems. And besides the north side, every square meter of the roof of the house can be used to generate electricity, 30-40 square meters is often enough to generate 70 percent of the electricity needs.

autarq offers a complete system solution for this. All data is determined on site, a needs analysis is carried out, and then an individual proposal is drawn up for solar roof tiles, cables, energy storage, inverter and energy manager.

The roofer installs the solar shingles, installs the wiring harnesses, and then integrates the new solar shingles with the remaining shingles. Electrical work in the house is carried out independently of the installation work on the roof.

A good return on your investment in terms of benefits, aesthetics, safety and durability are the reasons why more and more homeowners choose autarq solar roof tiles.

In addition, autarq offers 5-year all-risk insurance and a 25-year performance guarantee.

This aesthetically pleasing and safe energy concept also meets the increased demands for energy efficient buildings and facilitates access to lucrative loans and subsidies through EU funds or KfW Bank.

Feeding energy from your own roof instead of buying electricity is increasingly high on the wishlist of home builders. It's hard to miss the large-scale PV modules that you see on many roofs, but it can also be done almost invisibly: as an alternative, autarq solar roof tiles offer a smart roof that especially emphasizes the value of the home. And the safe low voltage (<120V) even allows a solar grid to be installed in one step where the roof covers the roof - an ideal product for renovation plans and new builds. <The roof itself does not need to be modified: the weight is about the same as that of the original shingles, the load-bearing capacity of the roof structure is not reduced, and the cables and plug contacts run under the roof and are thus weatherproof. 40 square meters of rooftop space is often enough to generate enough electricity for the home's own consumption.

Autarq offers a customized and complete system solution. Whether you are planning a home today or looking to renovate a roof, you are doing it because you are thinking about the future. So it's only good if you're thinking about generating electricity from solar energy for free. Solar Shingles - An alternative to traditional rooftop PV modules, which are usually large and visually unattractive - autarq solar shingles.

The future belongs to renewable energy sources. With their help, we protect the climate, provide electromobility and increasingly meet the needs of future generations.
