Solar Technologies

Solar technologies are broadly characterised as either passive solar or active solar depending on the way they capture, convert and distribute solar energy. Active solar techniques include the use of photovoltaic panels and solar thermal collectors to harness the energy. Passive solar techniques include orienting a building to the Sun, selecting materials with favorable thermal mass or light dispersing properties, and designing spaces that naturally circulate air.

Mvela Manufacturing through the usage of solid engineering solutions, can determine the generation capacity for each application. This is dependent on design, equipment selection and location, and allows us to accurately calculate the return on investment. Mvela Manufacturing undertakes solar audits on existing systems to identify performance levels and safety, and will provide the client with solutions to rectify any problems which may be identified.
