Ra-Essential 350 is an electric solar awning for balconies and terraces that is mounted under the ceiling. All components such as the motor, inverter and microcontroller are integrated into the casing, which is only 20 cm high. The retractable photovoltaic unit dynamically adjusts its tilt angle to the position of the sun, thus ensuring optimised energy efficiency with simultaneous shading. Cloud connection, sensors and an app ensure convenient control and automatic retraction in hazardous weather conditions.
Statement by the Jury
Ra-Essential 350 combines the function of an awning with complex solar technology for sustainable electricity generation in a convincing design.
