BEMO-PLATE

BEMO PLATE The flexible solar system for large and industrial roofs. BEMO PLATE is a solar roofing system which is used primarily in industry, agriculture and other buildings with large roof surfaces because of its size. The system consists of foil laminates of the American producer Unisolar including the state-to-the-art triple junction technology. The foil laminates are stuck to coated metal sheets - quality from BIOHAUS. The laying of the solar Powerplates is rather simple: Depending on the requirements, they are fixed or stuck parallel onto the roof elements. This way, the existing outer shell of the roof is used as substructure. This simple way of laying makes the system ideal for the use in large projects.

BIOHAUS is looking back at an experience in the solar sector of more than 20 years. A special topic is installing solar modules in an esthetically attractive way. Numerous reference buildings show that the combination of ecological generation of electricity and attractive construction can be realized. BIOHAUS relies on thin layer technology. The latest thin layer system BEMO PLATE offers far reaching possibilities for the use in industry, agriculture and trade.

Innovation with great effect Every roof and every facade is an advertisement for the architect and the owner of the building. The name BEMO SYSTEMS has stood for all-round planning, precision prefabrication and versatile application possibilities since 1982. BEMO SYSTEMS makes possible the creation of high-quality and out-of-the-ordinary roofing and wall cladding solutions in aluminium, copper, inc, steel and stainless steel. An optimized standing seam system, industrially pre-fabricated and easy to work, makes the range of architectural options for buildings almost unlimited.

What is photovoltaic? The hunger for energy of the worlds population is steadily increasing. A society is impossible without sufficient energy supply. As fossil energy sources bring along many dangers, renewable energies become a more and more important alternative. Especially the use of solar energy has constantly increased within the last years, not only because of the attractive remuneration for feeding power into the public network based on the law concerning renewable energies. Solar cells are mostly made of silicon. If the sun shines on the cells, a direct voltage is created between the top side and the bottom. This energy is converted into alternating current by a power inverter and fed into to public power supply system. A photovoltaic plant with a top performance of 1 kW provides you with 800 kWh electrical power per year and saves the environment for 500 kg of carbon dioxide and other pollutants every year. With a photovoltaic system you generate clean power!

How does BEMO PLATE work? BEMO PLATE modules are mounted this way depending on the kind of outer shell (trapezoidal, corrugated or standing seem profile). With the standing seam profile the installation is effected without penetrating the roof skin. No expensive holding clips or welding is necessary.

The technology BEMO PLATE consists of thin layer cells. The basis is the so-called triple-junction technology: i.e. 3 layers of solar cells lie one over the other. Every single layer is sensitive for another spectral range of light which leads to a better exploitation of energy - especially at diffuse light. Thin layer cells can utilize diffuse radiation better than crystal cells. The revenue is respectively higher. Even with an unfavorable orientation of the roof (e.g. to the east or west) or flat slopes of the roof, you can achieve a higher annual revenue using thin layer cells. By the use of bypass diodes, the system is insensitive to partial shading. At higher temperatures the decline in performance is lower. It is fact that the technology of thin layer cells causes an increase of the annual electricity revenue of up to 20 %, i.e.20 % more payment and faster amortization. Furthermore the production of thin layer cells is more ecological because of the low use of resources and energy during the production. The advantages speak in favor of themselves!

BEMO-PLATE the combination of ecology and esthetics with BEMO PLATE an optically representative and esthetically attractive look is created. Using Powerplates, architecturally outstanding buildings can be designed. According to the customers wishes the system can be integrated discreetly in the building - a harmonic total look is created. The Powerplates can be integrated much more unobtrusive as, e.g. solar modules on special constructions. Therefore you can kill two birds with one stone: You generate power in an environmental-friendly way and give your house a special accent. BEMO PLATE offers solutions for all kinds of operation fields, be it in commercial areas, industry or agriculture. Numerous reference objects in Germany and abroad are attractive on account of their excellent look - convince yourself!
