Description

In January 2020, BentallGreenOak, a global real estate investment management advisor, adopted the iPyramid 1 - Flat Rooftop Solar Cogeneration solution at their Ottawa office, collaborating with MAXUN Solar to integrate clean technology. The installation featured four advanced solar units, including two thermal (iPyramid-1T) and two cogeneration (iPyramid-1C) units, marking the first low-profile dual-axis tracker system on a flat rooftop. This solution significantly reduced reliance on fossil fuels, improved energy efficiency, and lowered costs and emissions. BentallGreenOak’s initiative promoted sustainable practices and showcased the potential of solar cogeneration in urban settings.


Impact & Result

The system delivers an impressive performance, generating 3.5 times the total energy output compared to traditional fixed-tilt solar panels. This remarkable efficiency underscores its advanced design and superior energy-harvesting capabilities.
