Harnessing the sun:
converting solar irradiation
to clean heat

Solar thermal collectors generate heat from the sun at high efficiency. They are a pivotal component in the generation of environmental, emission-free thermal energy. Most solar thermal collectors are suitable for shower hot water, targeting low temperature, residential uses, in the sun-belt. TIGI’s collectors are different.

TIGI’s Honeycomb Collector

TIGI makes an advanced new breed of flat plate solar thermal collector – the Honeycomb Collector. Using proprietary transparent insulation technology, our collector minimizes losses and generates more heat, for the least cost of ALL solar thermal and other heat solutions!

The Challenge that Solar
Thermal Collectors Face

When solar thermal collectors work at high temperature-differential from the ambient, they lose energy to the environment, resulting in reduced performance.
Most losses of flat collectors occur where they have no thermal insulation – on the side facing the sun. TIGI solved this problem using transparent insulation.

The principle of using transparent insulation:

1

Sunlight passes through the TI, heating the absorber

2

The TI layer suppresses convection and back radiation heat losses

3

The result is more heat, higher temperature, in all climate conditions

Our collector stands out for its:

Proprietary transparent insulation on the sun-facing side minimizes losses, improves efficiency.

Overheating protection at the collector level-guards the collector and system from overheating

World’s only hermetically sealed case flat collector eliminates accumulation of humidity and dust inside the collector

The result:

High efficiency, more heat per m2 of any flat or vacuum solar thermal collector in the target temperature range

Great fit for high target temperature used in industry and for cold climate conditions

Patented technology provides for longevitiy and low maintenance

Reaching lowest cost per kWh, minimizing emissions
