Solidel

A custom-made solar tree for the town of Candiac

In 2022, when Patio Drummond had just acquired the Solidel company, we had the opportunity and responsibility to finalize and install an innovative project for the town of Candiac.

This project, while taking us out of our comfort zone, has enabled us to discover and master the vast possibilities of solar lighting.
What’s more, this solar project makes a significant contribution to reducing our carbon footprint and promoting renewable energies!
A win-win situation!

Tailor-made solar lighting

Located at 169 rue d’Ambres in Candiac, our custom-built solar tree features 105 solar panels integrated into galvanized steel leaves.
These 5-watt monocrystalline panels maximize energy efficiency while offering remarkable aesthetics.
Lighting is even RGBW and remote-controlled.

To date, this remains one of the most impressive installations ever carried out by our team.
Feedback from Candiac residents and town officials has been extremely positive, even going so far as to emphasize the solar tree’s aesthetic and ecological impact.

Ingenious solar design

The Tilia solar tree is equipped with a 25.6V – 100 amp lithium iron phosphate battery, and solar controllers housed inside the structure.
The tree’s concrete bases feature three storage compartments, combining functionality and design.
The Tilia solar tree is not only a source of lighting, but also a work of art and an efficient storage solution.

A strong, durable solar tree

Built to stand the test of time, the Tilia solar tree is designed to provide long-lasting illumination for public spaces.
Each leaf, with its integrated solar panel, ensures not only high energy efficiency but also visual appeal.
The use of galvanized steel and concrete guarantees strength and longevity, making Tilia a long-lasting lighting solution.
The Tilia solar tree complies with the most stringent quality standards and environmental certifications.
What’s more, Patio Drummond’s concrete bases are now made from 40% recycled materials!
