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%
