Solar external venetian blinds: modern, wireless and energy-efficient

Q: How does a solar external venetian blind work?

A solar external venetian blind generates its own electricity: An inconspicuously integrated solar panel converts sunlight into electrical energy, which is stored in a rechargeable battery. This drives the motor of the external blind - without the need for a power connection. This means that the sun shading works reliably and independently even in diffuse light or on cloudy days.

Q: Can I retrofit an external venetian blind with a solar drive?

Yes, many ROMA systems can easily be retrofitted with a solar drive. Thanks to wireless technology, the solar panel is easy to install without any major structural work or wiring. This means that the external venetian blinds can also be integrated into existing buildings, conservatories or listed facades.

Solar external venetian blinds offer sustainable sun protection - without the need to lay any cables. Whether for new builds, renovations or retrofitting: ROMA external venetian blinds with solar drive combine modern design, precise daylight control and energy self-sufficient convenience. They impress with environmentally friendly operation, a wide range of control options and can be easily and harmoniously integrated into almost any building situation. This turns modern technology into sustainable living comfort - reliable, efficient and future-proof.

Electric external blinds with solar drive: how it works

A powerful photovoltaic module is integrated into the upper section of the external blind, which converts sunlight into electrical energy. This is stored in a long-life rechargeable battery and is available for daily operation - even when the sky is cloudy or the light is diffuse.

The stored energy is sufficient to operate the external venetian blind independently for several days. This ensures reliable use all year round, regardless of the weather .

Smart control for maximum comfort

ROMA solar outdoor blinds can be seamlessly integrated into modern Smart Home systems. Whether via app, radio control or automatic sensors, the sun shading reacts to the position of the sun, temperature or time of day and adapts automatically to your everyday life.

In combination with weather and sun sensors, the blind slats open or close exactly when it makes the most sense for the room climate, lighting mood and energy efficiency. The result: more living comfort and noticeable energy savings.

External blinds for your Smart Home

Solar shading with solar drive: flexible use

Thanks to their wireless technology, external venetian blinds with solar drive are suitable for almost all types of buildings and windows - whether new build, renovation or retrofit.

Their use is particularly advantageous for:

Window areas that are difficult to access, e.g. on upper storeys or side façades without direct access
Listed buildings where structural changes to the façade are not possible
Conservatories or extensions that are not connected to the power grid but still need to be shaded
