Aiko has announced that its advanced N-Type ABC modules have been installed on rooftops at leading Italian door manufacturer Dierre. The project, located in Asti and involving a 500kWp system deploying the company’s Neostar 450Wp modules, was implemented by OGT Solar and installed by Photovoltaic Systems, the initiative aligning with Dierre’s goal of reducing its carbon footprint and incorporating renewable energy into its operations.
Dierre’s Energy Manager, Salvatore Lombardo, highlighted the key reasons for selecting AIKO modules, driven by a need for higher energy output and aesthetic alignment with their brand, commenting: “We chose AIKO for its performance—more power installed in the same space and more energy produced—and for its aesthetics, which reflect manufacturing quality. Just as our doors are functional elements of a home, the photovoltaic system supports the production of Dierre’s products.”
Pierluigi Terzuolo, BU Manager at OGT Solar, added: “AIKO presented the ideal product for this project—high performance and aesthetically aligned with the end customer’s values. After working on simulations with PVsyst, both the installer and Dierre strongly preferred AIKO, its module quality and appearance impressing Dierre when they visited our showroom.”
Elio Piffer, Photovoltaic Systems CEO, went on: “The performance of the system installed at Dierre is excellent and aligns perfectly with the simulations. We achieved 5% more power in the same space and a 7% better break-even point, thanks to the modules’ efficiency, superior temperature coefficient and lower power degradation. This has convinced me to use AIKO for all future projects.”
