Inside2Outside installed the first of its newest brand of canopies - The Power2Outside range - on Tuesday 25 May 2010 at Inside2Outside Head Office, Manor Farm, Low Road, Fenstanton. The Power2Outside brand is a unique brand that combines a canopy with Organic Photovoltaics (OPV) - the third genereation of solar power panels. This is a sustainable canopy. This combination means that you are now able to have a canopy that generates renewable energy whilst keeping you shaded and dry.
Inside2Outside have been in the canopy business for over 15 years and the latest addition to their four existing brands was to add the Power2Outside brand in early 2010. Inside2Outside M.D Dr. Robert Carpenter had for many years been looking for a way to harness the power of the sun through Inside2Outside canopies. Solar power panels are the obvious chouce, however, the majority of the product were to heavy for the canopy to support and didn'y look aesthetically pleasing.
OPV however pprovided the ideal solution Dr Carpenter had been looking for. OPV is lightweight, flexble and thin. This unique combination means that it can be spread acress the entirety of a canopy and cause no adverse affect on the performance of the canopy. What's more the OPV generates energy with lower light levels than traditional solar panels. thus, the OPV doesn;t have to face the sun to harness significant energy but can face any direction and still generate significant power.
The OPV is developed by an American company called Konarka and Inside2Outside has an exclusive licence for the distribution and installation of the OPV to schools and care homes.
Schools and care homes can benefit in numerous ways from having a sustainable canopy. The canopy provides shade and comfort outside in all weathers, protection form the sun, wind and rain. With the OPV on the canopy power is generated, this can either be used by the school or care home to provde power for buildings, laptops, phones etc... or thanks to new Government incentives can generate an income from producing renewable energy. This government incentive is called Feed-In-Taroffs, and these pay the producer of renewable energy an income. Thus a sustainable canopy provides the school or care home with all the benefits of a canopy as well as an income.
Sustainable canopies are the future of canopies. OPV is the future of solar power gneration and its unique charachteristics mean that it will actually generate significant power in the UK, even on a cloudy day!

OPV Canopy Installed!
Inside2Outside installed the first of its Power2Outside brand of canopies on Tuesday at I2O Headquarters.
The Power2Outside brand combines OPV - Organic Photovoltaics, the third generation of Solar Power Panels with Tensile Membrane structures. Having been in the canopy business for over 15 years in early 2010 Inside2Outside launched its Power2Outside brand.
The first installation took place on Tuesday 25 May and the canopy was installed at Inside2Outside's head office. The OPV is hooked up to a measuring device so the real output and power each panel generates can be easily seen.
Sustainable canopies are ideal for schools and the Power2Outside brand is aimed at schools. OPV however is suited to applications such as roof's, car park canopies and a whole range of other applications. For information about the applications of anything other than schools go to www.skyshades.co.uk
