Pinarello is a small tourist location in southern Corsica, and the landscape is typical of many Mediterranean coasts: in front are the beautiful sunny beaches, and behind are the hills covered with forests. In these areas, the production of electricity from photovoltaic systems can offer many satisfactions in terms of productivity, but during the design phase, it is essential to consider some fundamental factors: first of all, the
wind resistance. In coastal areas, the ventilation is indeed quite constant and sometimes reaches significant intensities. For this reason, the precise calculation of the sizing of the system and the distribution of loads on the roof becomes an essential requirement to ensure efficiency, durability, and reliability of the system, and the experts at the
Technical Office of Sun Ballast provide the necessary technical support every day to ensure maximum satisfaction for the end customer and the best quality of installation. For this
12KWp system realized by SOLAIRE CORSE, the chosen
system was the
East-West system at 15°: the arrangement of the panels in double opposing rows allows for achieving very high wind resistance, and with the addition of supplementary "U" weights on the side ballast, the stability of the installation is guaranteed. The exposure of the modules to the East and West also allows for distributing the
energy production throughout the day, brilliantly compensating for possible production drops due to shading from surrounding buildings, trees, or hills. The result is a
solid,
efficient, and
reliable system.
