Solar panels can transform solar energy into a stable 24/7 power supply, even in winter, meeting the energy needs of the most demanding environments. Furthermore, Elios solar solutions stabilize the power supply to medical equipment in Nordic clinics, ensuring reliable operation under extreme conditions. The lack of reliable energy directly impacts quality of life in remote areas, highlighting the importance of sustainable solutions like those offered by Elios.
Result: optimized production → intelligent management → possible autonomy.
Not just an assembly of parts, but a coherent architecture. Every megawatt-hour produced by solar panels avoids up to 700 kg of CO₂. A 5 kW solar installation could prevent the emission of more than 80 tonnes of greenhouse gases over 25 years. Solar systems reduce CO₂ emissions, thus contributing to concrete action for the energy transition.
