3.6 kWp Self-Consumption Solar Kit – 8 AIKO 470W Panels + Sofar HYD3000-EP Inverter
The 3.6 kWp solar self-consumption kit is the ideal solution for Belgian households wishing to reduce their electricity bills through solar energy. This premium kit combines 8 AIKO NEOSTAR 3S+ 470 Wp panels with N-Type bifacial technology andthe Sofar Solar HYD3000-EP 3 kW single-phase hybrid inverter, capable of managing self-consumption, grid feed-in and optional battery storage.
Panneaux Solaires AIKO NEOSTAR 3S+ 470 Wc – Excellence Technologique N-Type
Les 12 panneaux AIKO NEOSTAR 3S+ de 470 Wc constituent le cœur de production de ce kit. Utilisant la technologie N-Type ABC (All Back Contact) de dernière génération, ces modules offrent un rendement exceptionnel de 23,5%, bien supérieur aux panneaux P-Type traditionnels.
Leur conception bifaciale double verre permet une production supplémentaire pouvant atteindre +25% grâce à la récupération de la lumière réfléchie par le sol (effet albédo). Cette particularité les rend particulièrement performants sur toitures claires, sols en gravier ou installations surélevées.
La technologie Half-Cut 16 busbar réduit les pertes résistives et améliore considérablement le comportement du panneau en cas d'ombrage partiel. Les cellules de petite taille (coupées en deux) continuent de produire même lorsqu'une partie du module est ombragée, garantissant une production optimale tout au long de la journée.
