Ardosolar® – The Integrated Photovoltaic Tile that combines Technology and Design
The evolution of photovoltaics for porcelain stoneware roofing
Ardosolar® is the integrated photovoltaic system developed to fit perfectly with ARDOGRES® 40×40 porcelain stoneware tiles. An innovative solution that allows you to create roofs that harmoniously combine passive and active elements, maintaining a uniform aesthetic and high energy efficiency.
Thanks to its total compatibility with the 40×40 Nero Ardesia, Morzine, Grigio Pietra, and St. Michel variants, Ardosolar® integrates discreetly into the roof, maintaining chromatic and stylistic continuity. This feature also makes it ideal for buildings in historic contexts or subject to landscape restrictions, where the visual impact of traditional photovoltaic solutions is often an obstacle.
Why choose Ardosolar®
✔ Perfect architectural integration
Ardosolar® directly replaces roof tiles, becoming an integral part of the roof: it is not an overlay module, but a real photovoltaic tile. The result is a more elegant, tidy roof that blends in perfectly with the rest of the roof.
✔ Ideal solution for complex roofs
The system can also be installed on roofs with multiple pitches or irregular surfaces, where the use of standard photovoltaic modules would be complicated or impossible.
✔ BIPV technology: truly integrated photovoltaics
Ardosolar® falls into the category of BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaics) systems, i.e., modules that replace parts of the building envelope. Compared to traditional BAPV systems (installed on top of the roof), BIPV offers numerous advantages:
greater aesthetic appeal
better protection of the building
customized design
increased property value
The advantages of integrated photovoltaic systems (BIPV)
1. Long-term economic benefits
Although the initial investment may be slightly higher, the BIPV system offers:
optimized energy production
overall reduction in roofing costs
longer system life
higher property value
When considering not only the panels but the entire roof, the cost difference with a traditional system is significantly reduced, making the Ardosolar® solution very competitive.
2. Maximum energy efficiency thanks to dedicated design
The construction of an Ardosolar® system requires a specific technical study, which is useful for:
optimizing the inclination and exposure
improving the energy yield of the entire roof
shifting production peaks to times of peak demand
integrating architectural choices already in the design phase
Collaborating with architects and designers allows you to make the most of the characteristics of the building and its surroundings.
3. Aesthetics and sustainability together
Choosing Ardosolar® means adopting efficient technology that respects the design of the building, while contributing to reducing environmental impact and increasing overall energy efficiency.
Ardosolar®: innovation that integrates into the future
With Ardosolar®, Ardogres confirms its commitment to creating cutting-edge solutions that combine performance, durability, and aesthetic appeal.
An ideal choice for those who want an efficient, elegant photovoltaic system that is perfectly integrated into the architecture of the building.
