![]() In TEJAS BORJA’s CIGS FLAT10 solar roof tiles, not only cadmium compounds have been eliminated, but also lead, widely present in c-Si cells and which affects the nervous, hematological, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular and renal systems, converting it into in a 100% non-toxic technology. Cadmium, with regard to human health, is a toxic element for the kidneys, bone and respiratory system as well as being classified as a carcinogenic substance. It is the case of the most widely used cadmium telluride (CdTe) cells, where the Cadmium is the main potentially toxic component, or as in some types of CIGS technology thin-film cells that incorporate cadmium sulfide (CdS) in their structure, which also makes them potentially toxic. However, fine cell photovoltaic cells have traditionally had the drawback of incorporating toxic compounds, both for human health and for the environment. Although it is considered that the carbon consumption of thin-film cells (including CIGS) is less than that of silicon cells because large amounts of heat and therefore energy are required in the production of the latter. On the one hand, the carbon footprint during the entire life cycle of photovoltaic cells in general and of thin-film cells more specifically, is much lower than that of conventional electricity generation technologies. The term monocrystalline (monocrystalline silicon or “c-Si”) is well known in conventional photovoltaic panels, but what is CIGS technology? We explain below its outstanding advantages.Īnother aspect for which to use TEJAS BORJA FLAT10 CIGS solar roof tiles is their zero net impact on the environment and their harmlessness for human health: The solar panel technology used in the SOLARES tiles from Tejas Borja is: Solar FLAT-5XL Monocrystalline and Solar FLAT-10 CIGS. The technology used in solar panels and advances in this regard offer us alternatives that seek improvements in efficiency, design and even in their environmental impact. In addition to the architectural integration of the solar tile in the original project, it is important to consider another series of aspects. Find more about TEJAS BORJA solar tile products: With the same overlaps and fittings as the base tile, it provides durability and maximum watertightness. Without the typical silver connections that we see in most photovoltaic products. ![]() The SOLAR tiles from Tejas Borja are manufactured to hide the solar panels to such an extent that they go unnoticed. With minimal visual impact from the solar panels and easy installation, TEJAS BORJA achieves the perfect architectural integration. The integration is obtained by using ceramic tiles as a construction element to cover the inclined roofs. Without losing sight of the aesthetic aspect of it, we always look for an optimized design according to the function that it has to fulfill. The choice of material for the roof is decisive to guarantee the durability, watertightness, protection and energy efficiency of the home. This is achieved through the construction of an electric generation installation which covers the own electric energy consumption and also allows to save on electricity bills. Solar solutions from Tejas Borja, where the PV solar tiles are integrated in the ceramic roof in a way such that their impact on the original design is the least, present many more advantages aside from the aesthetic aspect.Įnergy self-consumption consists of generating energy in the place where it is consumed or close to it. ![]() Advantages and explanation of the CIGS photovoltaic (PV) solar panels ![]()
