Eternit’s Division Launches New Brazilian Solar Tile That Promises to Revolutionize the Sector. In Addition to Being Compatible with Traditional Tiles, the Equipment Promises to Reduce Electricity Bills.
Called solar tegula, the new Brazilian concrete solar tile is being manufactured by Tégula, which is part of the Eternit group. It is certified by Inmetro and already has some installations in Brazil to reduce electricity bills. The Tégula solar aims to innovate by combining ease of installation, aesthetics, and the simplest and most efficient way to capture solar energy, which is abundant here in Brazil. Eternit has also launched on the market fibercement photovoltaic tiles that are compatible with the well-known traditional wavy tiles. The BIG-F10C, BIG-F11, and PLANA-F15 tiles are now certified under the records BIG-F10C – 006825/2022, BIG-F11 – 00785/2022, and PLANA-F15 – 007263/2022, and can be marketed by the group.
Understand How the New Brazilian Solar Tile Works
This new Brazilian solar tile serves to cover your property while generating electricity to reduce electricity bills, which are becoming increasingly expensive. It consists of photovoltaic cells that, like in a conventional solar panel, are responsible for converting sunlight into electricity.
The tile receives sunlight and generates direct current energy just like a photovoltaic panel, and the direct current is the same energy present in the batteries of our cars, cell phones, laptops, and others.

Solar Pyramid draws attention by converting solar energy into million-dollar savings and repositioning the City Hall of Curitiba as an example of innovation, sustainability, and intelligent use of public resources.
This energy will pass through a photovoltaic inverter that will convert it into alternating current to be used in the outlets and power the household appliances, focusing on reducing electricity bills.
One of the biggest advantages for those who choose this Brazilian solar tile is its aesthetics, as they are fully integrated into the construction and almost go unnoticed. Additionally, the ease of installation is also a differential, as they are installed like conventional roofs.
What Is the Capacity of the Brazilian Solar Tile?
The concrete solar tile, known as solar tegula, draws considerable attention as it can be produced in various colors, providing a range of possibilities for consumers. This allows it to adapt to the property’s architecture.
The available colors are Ivory straw, Colonial beige, red, which is very similar to those traditional colonial tiles, graphite gray, and Pearl gray. Installations look very nice with these different colors of these photovoltaic tiles. In addition to different colors, it is also possible to find the Brazilian solar tile with varying power outputs, ranging from 10 to 15 peak watts, focusing on reducing electricity bills.
In the Big F10 C model, each tile has a maximum nominal power of 10W peak and consists of 12 monocrystalline silicon photovoltaic cells. For context, in the Brazilian market today, there are already photovoltaic modules of 665W peak, meaning it would require 67 tiles to achieve the power of a single 665W peak panel. Meanwhile, the Big F11 model, as the name suggests, has a maximum nominal power of 11W peak, also composed of monocrystalline silicon cells but this time made up of 14 photovoltaic cells.
Eternit Also Launches Fibercement Tile
All these tiles come with ready-to-use cables, known as harnesses. The cables connect the tiles in series and parallel effortlessly. After the connections, it’s as if we have a single 360W peak module.
In addition to this Brazilian solar tile from Tégula Solar, Eternit also offers a fibercement tile. This model was designed to be more affordable, as it is compatible with the well-known traditional fibercement tiles.
The Eternit tiles have a maximum nominal power of 142.2 W peak. This tile consists of five photovoltaic modules and a total of 115 monocrystalline silicon cells, focused on reducing electricity bills.
