Why Primotech?

Why Primotech?

• Because we are an ISO 9001, 14001 certified company, and have certifications from CE and IGBC also.

• Because we have our very own well equipped R&D base.

• Because we don’t compromise with the quality, that’s why we also have an in-house testing facility to keep a close eye on the products.

• Because we will soon be having strategic alliances with the best companies in the world, working in the same or close field.

Solar Energy• Solar energy is radiant light and heat from

the sun harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies.

• The irradiance at the earth’s surface is about 1000W/m2 and the daily average irradiance is approximately 250W/m2.

• The light energy(for Si PV cells, <1100nm) is harnessed by the solar PVs using the photoelectric effect.

• The heat from the sun is harnessed using the solar thermal collectors.

Solar Advisory Services• Solar energy has been getting a lot of attention due to its abundance and

feasibility.• We at Primotech offer consulting services on solar energy harnessing and

its use. We also provide unmatched solar solutions. We provide assistance in:– Potential site selection/Site feasibility assessment– Technology feasibility assessment– Site insolation assessment– Solar rooftop implementations– Solar PV project design and modeling– Liasioning & approvals for solar projects– Design and civil constructions– Solar panel mounting structure design & implementation– REC accreditation, registration and issuance

Solar Advisory Services

• Primotech offers end to end services in setting up grid connected/off grid/Rooftop based Solar Photovoltaic power projects.

• We also provide services in installing Building Integrated Photovoltaics.

Solar Advisory Services• Our Solar products include:

Solar Lighting Portfolio - Solar led lanterns, Solar home lighting systems, Solar street lighting systems.

Solar Thermal portfolio - Solar water heating systems (ETC & FPC). Solar Miscellaneous portfolio - Solar water pumps, Solar road

flashers, Solar signage and much more..

• The technologies that are getting a special mention are: Solar Rooftops BIPVs Solar Water Heaters Solar Water Pumps

Solar Rooftops• Solar Photovoltaic modules or more commonly known as

solar rooftops convert solar radiation between certain wavelengths directly into electricity using the photovoltaic effect, hence used in Green Buildings to generate clean energy and reduce energy consumption from the grid.

• The photovoltaic effect refers to photons of light exciting electrons in a semiconductor into a higher state of energy, allowing them to act as charge carriers for an electric current

• Solar PVs help in decentralized power generation which can prevent blackouts.

• Rooftops are a better choice for buildings in operation

Solar Rooftops• Besides generating clean energy it

also reduces potential land use.• Currently, the higher range of

performance for Si cells is around 19-20%, and thin film products are around 10% efficient.

• The efficiency of the PV modules increases with increase in solar insolation but decreases with increase in temperature and vice versa.

Building Integrated PV• Building Integrated PV or BIPV is a technology in

which solar PVs are used to replace the building material in parts of the building envelope like roof, skylights or facades.

• Although it also reduces potential land use the advantage of integrated Photovoltaics over more common non-integrated systems is that the initial cost can be offset by reducing the amount spent on building materials and labor that would normally be used to construct the part of the building that the BIPV modules replace.

• BIPVs make a better choice for buildings under construction as they also save a significant part of the material cost.

Solar Water Heater• A solar water heater is a device that uses solar

energy to provide hot water by absorbing the solar radiation and passing it on to the fluid(water).

• Solar water heaters are remarkable alternatives for geysers in buildings as they are renewably powered.

• There are two types of solar heat collectors, i.e. Flat Plate Collectors and Evacuated Tube Collectors.

• Flat Plate Collectors are less efficient than the Evacuated tube collectors.

• The efficiency of the collectors increases with solar insolation and decreases with increase in the operating temperature.

• We analyze the building requirement and suggest the right size and quality of the collectors as collectors come in different sizes (volume) .

Solar Water Pumps• A solar water pump is a device that uses solar energy to pump

water.• It consists of a PV panel, a controller and a pump.• Solar Water Pumps can be used in buildings to fulfill the water

requirements of the tenants without using the grid electricity.• Although with varying solar irradiance water supply may vary but

it is a very good option for areas with unavailability of electricity or insufficient electrical supply.

Solar Street Lights

• We also provide Solar LED street lighting systems that are highly energy efficient and require very less maintenance.

• The ANU has installed 40 Watt LED Lights at sports stadium, solar street lights and LED lights powering the roads leading to hostels of engineering colleges.
