Ankara Solar Energy, a Turkish module manufacturer, has launched PV Floor, a line of solar panel products that double as anti-slip glass flooring. It is targeted at residential projects and commercial applications, such as shopping centers, driveways, parking areas, terraces, decks, and pedestrian zones.
The PV Floor brand was launched in Turkey and Greece in 2022, with European and USA markets now following.
“The return on investment (ROI) for a 1 kW system in Spain or Greece is typically 4 to 5 years,” an Ankara Solar spokesperson told pv magazine. “To complete the PV floor system, adjustable pedestals are required, and we provide these along with the products. There is no need for a steel or aluminum structure.”
