We would like to introduce the offshore solar unit 'FRP Pole (GPI Pipe)' handled by the NBL Research Institute. As it is a GPI standard pipe with a permissible buckling stress of 200 MPa, it provides sufficient buckling strength. The advantage of mountain solar power generation is that it can be scaled up significantly relative to the installation costs, allowing for lower construction prices. The installation cost for mountain solar power generation proposed by our company can be implemented at a significantly lower price compared to existing construction methods. 【Features】 ■ GPI standard pipe ■ Permissible buckling stress: 200 MPa ■ Provides sufficient buckling strength *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

The "Hollow Solar Panel Installation Method" is a construction method for mountain solar power generation. The assembly pole has the same joint structure as a yacht mast, and when inserted from the top, it causes automatic rotation due to the inclined cut, allowing for the establishment of a pole of the required length with a stop mechanism. The wire used to secure the pole is 12mm or more, enabling the self-supporting installation of the pole. 【Features】 ■ Installation method for elevations over 10m above ground in mountainous areas ■ Wire used to secure the pole is 12mm or more ■ The work cart is electric and can be operated manually when necessary, moving laterally on caterpillar tracks *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce the aerial unmanned installation and maintenance vehicle for the 1*2m standard solar panel developed by the NBL Research Institute. The solar panel is equipped with four hooks that have mechanical locking and electrical connection functions. This solar panel will be set up and maintained unmanned by a maintenance cart equipped with a robotic arm. Additionally, it features a structure that allows for functional modifications and combinations for applications on steep mountain slopes, flat ground, and cross-travel. 【Functions of the Maintenance Cart (Excerpt)】 ■ Movement of the solar panel cart, ascent and descent from the ground, position setting ■ Mechanical lock for the solar panel hanger ■ Linear movement and stopping on the sub-cable, remote operation via surveillance camera ■ On-rail movement of the spider cart on the sub-cable is carried out by a crab crane ■ In emergencies, manned movement and operation are also possible *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce the offshore solar unit "Conductive Tension Cable" handled by the NBL Research Institute. The allowable tensile strength of the "sub cable" is designed for 10 tons with an allowable current of 200A. The wind load for the "main cable" assumes a maximum wind speed of approximately 40m/s in the building code area, with a horizontal configuration at 10m above ground, estimating a wind load of 50 tons (2500m2) for 30% of the space. The work vehicle is suitable for transporting and constructing the so-called "Caterpillar-type crab crane" mountain specification vehicle. 【Main Cable Features】 ■ UV protective coat ■ Allowable tensile strength: approximately 50 tons (50 tons wind load for 2500m2) ■ 50m span ■ Aerial support possible *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Our company has developed a completely different method of "mountainous mega solar power generation" compared to traditional solar power generation on mountains and slopes. Essentially, it is a facility that achieves low costs and is installed in the air rather than on the ground. The maximum installation rate of solar panels is about 90% (recommended 50%), and the maximum installation angle is about 30 degrees, allowing for the installation of hollow curved surfaces. 【Features】 ■ Achieves low costs ■ Air installation method ■ Maximum installation rate: approximately 90% (recommended 50%) ■ Maximum installation angle: approximately 30 degrees ■ Capable of hollow curved surface installation *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Solar panels have become widespread, prominently installed on residential roofs, and furthermore, the decline in panel costs is accelerating further adoption. NBL Research Institute proposes a waterproof roofing system for solar panels made of lightweight and durable FRP materials, which incorporates functionality, waterproofing, and roof reinforcement. The waterproofing function includes the waterproof performance of the solar panels and waterproofing between the panels (waterproofing through caulking). 【Equipment used for construction】 ■ Frame (FRP pipe) ■ Orthogonal reinforcement connecting screws ■ Bottom receiving plate ■ Top pressing plate ■ Solar fixing screws ■ Joint silicone caulking agent *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

The NBL Research Institute develops, manufactures, and sells GPI standard FRP pipes used for oil drilling that can withstand pressures of 1000 atmospheres. Our GPI pipe solar panel retailers are capable of installing solar panels using FRP pipe materials that meet these harsh conditions on roof frames. We carry out installations that include construction and electrical work. With the cost of roof restoration, there is an expected triple benefit of significantly reduced electricity bills after installation and the potential to supply power. 【Features】 ■ Durability: 50 years ■ Low installation costs ■ Reduced electricity bills ■ Effective for disaster recovery work ■ Capability to supply power *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Through 45 years of research and development, our company has successfully developed excellent secondary materials and a unique FRP molding technique known as "centrifugal molding = CW method." The FRP high-pressure pipes produced by this method are corrosion-resistant, high-quality, and also offer convenience and cost-effectiveness for oil well applications. They can serve as alternatives to metal pipes and can enter areas where metal pipes were previously unsuitable. 【Features】 ■ Lightweight ■ Excellent corrosion resistance and pressure resistance ■ High quality while also providing convenience and cost-effectiveness *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
