Somfy Unveils Wire-free Li-ion Solar Panel for Motorized Window Shades and Blinds

Somfy, the manufacturer of motors for interior window coverings and exterior solar protections, has launched the Li-ion Solar Panel, filling the need for a greener alternative to power wire-free motorized window shades and blinds.

The solar charging solution harnesses renewable solar energy to power motorized window coverings in a cost-effective way that also reduces end-user maintenance.

The Li-ion Solar Panel works in conjunction with long-life batteries that provide enhanced performance and convenience by decreasing the need for battery replacement. Compatible with most Somfy powered WireFree window coverings, the panel’s discreet low profile is easy to conceal and preserves the design of the window.

Commenting on the launch, Brent Holup, product manager Wirefree Products said, “The team at Somfy is constantly innovating to offer high-performing, maintenance-free alternatives to our valuable customers.”

Holup noted that the new Li-ion Solar Panel was designed to be a “plug-and-play” and “cost-effective solution” aimed at providing additional convenience to consumers. “Optimum sun exposure is all you need to enjoy the best performing lithium-ion battery technology without worrying about replacing or discarding disposable batteries,” he said.
