In the competitive hospitality industry of Guatemala, energy efficiency is a strategic necessity.
Hotel San Miguel, located in the bustling area of El Tejar, sought to transition to renewable energy to stabilize its operational overhead. In collaboration with our local partner, Ingelec, Eco Green Energy designed and supplied a 25kW system. It was specifically engineered to meet the hotel’s high daytime energy demands while maintaining a commitment to environmental sustainability.
Challenge
The hospitality sector faces a unique set of energy hurdles:
High Operational Costs: Hotels operate 24/7, with significant peaks in energy consumption due to lighting, HVAC systems, and guest services.
Environmental Reliability: In a region like Chimaltenango, equipment must withstand varied weather conditions while maintaining high output.
Space Optimization: The installation required a high-power density solution to maximize the limited rooftop area available, ensuring the 25kW target was met without compromising the hotel’s aesthetic or structural integrity.
Our Solution
EGE and Ingelec opted for the Atlas TOPCon featuring N-Type 585W modules. This was the ideal choice for several technical reasons:
Superior Efficiency: The N-Type technology provides a higher power output per square meter compared to standard P-type modules, allowing us to reach 25kW with a smaller footprint.
Better Temperature Coefficient: Guatemala’s climate can be demanding; these modules perform better in high temperatures, ensuring consistent energy production throughout the day.
Local Expertise: Ingelec provided the on-the-ground installation expertise, ensuring the system was optimized for the specific grid conditions of El Tejar, while EGE provided the French-engineered hardware backup.
The 25kW installation at Hotel San Miguel is a prime example of how the right partnership. EGE’s technology combined with Ingelec’s local market knowledge—can deliver immediate results. Since the commissioning, the hotel has seen a significant reduction in grid dependency and a direct boost to its bottom line.
By choosing EGE’s 585W TOPCon modules, Hotel San Miguel has not only lowered its carbon footprint but has also future-proofed its energy strategy with some of the most advanced solar technology available on the market today.
