Green City Initiative

The VOOU Modules work under subdued (indirect) light and produce ~1.2kWh/m2/day

Considering an available wall/roof tile surface of 230m2 per house,

100 buildings generate about  28 MW/day

[ 230m2 x 100 buildings x 1.2kWh/m2/day = 27,600kWh/day x 365days 10,074,000kWh/year]

 

provinding energy for ~3,000 homes

and annual CO2 savings of ~4,300t*

For every 5MW installed, a solar farm will power over 1,500 homes annually (based on an average annual consumption of 3,300 kWh of electricity for a house) and save 2,150 tonnes of CO2. Approximately 25 acres of land is required for every 5 megawatts (MW) of installation.

Solar Farm Projects

1 acre covered to 80% (= 3,237m2) with
VOOU Solar-Battery Modules

[ 3,237m2 x 1.2kWh/m2/day x 365days
= 1,417,806kWh/year / 3,300kWh/year/household
= ~430 households]

provides energy for 430 homes or

3.5 acre provide energy for 1,500 homes

→ Space Reduction by ~86%

Compared to current PV solar plants that require
25 acres for 1,500 households
