A Resstende solar shading system has become part of the research activities at VELUXlab, the experimental laboratory of the Politecnico di Milano dedicated to the study of energy efficiency, environmental comfort, and technologies for the buildings of the future.
The project involves monitoring the performance of the shading system through seasonal thermographic inspections, with the aim of collecting data on the contribution of solar shading to indoor comfort and the energy efficiency of buildings.
For this initiative, Resstende has installed an external roller blind equipped with a battery-powered motor system charged via a solar panel, an autonomous solution that requires no connection to the electrical grid or additional installation works.
“VELUXlab represents an ideal testing ground for us: a real-world environment, scientifically monitored, where we can assess the performance of the shading system over time and gather valuable data to support the evolution of our products,” comments Angelo Furia, Senior Project Manager at Resstende.
