[Music] Virtue's versatile modular design makes it easier and cheaper to install and maintain each tube comes with its own

individual mounting system saving on time and materials an array is extremely low-profile just 25 centimeters off the roofline minimizing potential planning

issues and significantly reducing wind share compared to conventional products mounted on racks and a frames to ensure optimal performance at a given latitude each tube is angled towards the Sun and

spaced accordingly to avoid self-shading in the winter to maximize summer outputs when the Sun is higher a reflector captures the solar energy that would otherwise have missed the tubes

increasing peak performance by as much as 40% and average annual yields by 15% the vacuum inside the tube dramatically reduces thermal losses enabling virtue

to deliver higher temperature outputs for hot water and processed heat even in colder climates the vacuum also protects the PV cells from humidity whilst being
00:01:21
actively cooled to a uniform temperature by the solar absorber this can increase peak electrical performance and improve the useful life of the cells the unique

combination of design elements creates an entirely new category for solar heat and power virtue delivers the highest rooftop energy density in the world
