In the canton of Ticino, the Serfontana shopping center has become a regional reference not only for its commercial history but also for its technological commitment to energy sustainability. By means of a photovoltaic system 93.1 kWp photovoltaic system installed on its roof, the site has been able to cover its entire electricity consumption with solar energy.
The installation uses Neostar 2P modules of 470 W of ABC Type N technology technology developed by AIKO. This solution allows greater efficiency and energy density per square meter, a crucial aspect in roofs with limited space. Thanks to this choice, Serfontana has avoided increasing the available surface area, achieving more production with fewer resources.
The planning includes three solar systems: one already in operation, one recently completed and a third one on the parking lot canopy, which shows a comprehensive vision of energy self-consumption.
paCompared to systems based on TOPCon technology, AIKO’s ABC panels allow a 9.2ne increase in annual production, with an additional cumulative generation of 327 MWh over 30 years. This yield represents an estimated savings of 1.14 million euros, with a 900% return on investment and an IRR of over 47%.
In addition, the installation reduces the amortization period by 6.7% compared to conventional alternatives and maintains costs 8% lower, thus consolidating its economic attractiveness.
Serfontana’s consumption pattern coincides with the hours of highest solar radiation, which allows for an ideal integration between demand and production. The photovoltaic modules modules demonstrate thermal resistance, low annual degradation and tolerance to partial shading and micro-cracks, ensuring long-term stable generation.
The choice of Ecosinergie Tienergy SA as the installation company and Krannich as technical distributor reinforces the quality of the project. According to Gionata Mongodi, project manager, the choice was based on the performance per square meter and the extended warranties offered by AIKO: 25 years for the product and 30 years for the performance.
