27th nov 2024

Pavegen Solar+ is here. The first ever kinetic and solar Pavegen tile.

This groundbreaking product from Pavegen marries the power of solar and kinetic energy in one sleek, adaptable system, setting a new standard for urban energy generation. Here’s why Pavegen Solar+ is a game-changer for cities, communities, and the planet.

Harnessing the Power of Sunlight and Footsteps

Pavegen Solar+ redefines renewable energy generation and public engagement, by combining two abundant urban resources: sunlight and foot traffic. During daylight hours, its advanced SunPower Maxeon Gen 3 monocrystalline silicon solar cells capture solar energy with an impressive 24% efficiency. The system harvests kinetic energy 24/7 from pedestrian footsteps, ensuring energy generation around the clock.

This dual-energy approach makes Pavegen Solar+ ideal for bustling urban environments and sunny climates. Whether it’s a vibrant city square, a pedestrian-heavy transport hub, or a community park hosting evening events, Pavegen Solar+ keeps energy flowing and engagement thriving.

Designed for Maximum Impact

Beyond its unparalleled energy efficiency, Pavegen Solar+ is engineered for durability and ease of integration.

Compact and Robust Design: Each equilateral tile measures 500mm and weighs just 2.85 kg, with a slim 15mm depth that ensures easy installation and aesthetic appeal.

Built to Last: With an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance and slip-resistant materials, Pavegen Solar+ performs reliably in diverse conditions.

Smart Installation: Whether embedded into the ground or installed with ramps, its design ensures accessibility and minimal disruption.

A Re-engineered Substructure: Using fewer raw materials means the Solar+ system has slashed its carbon footprint by 30% and significantly improved its performance.

New tile will harvest up to *30x more energy than the original tile, in optimal conditions and enables Pavegen to combine the power of footsteps with the power of the sun

Pavegen can now help smart city developers, businesses and brands gather valuable data and insights while creating an innovative, engaging and dynamic experience. - 24/7
