This page is intentionally light until there is real pilot data to show. Publishing unproven claims here would undermine the trust this page is meant to build.
Flotier's aerodynamic design didn't skip straight to marketing claims. Here's the validation work actually completed to date, and what's still in progress.
4,000+ hours of R&D and 600+ CFD simulations across design variants, modelling airflow over both pitched and flat-roof buildings.
Aerodynamic design tested and validated in controlled wind tunnel conditions.
Czech Republic pilot installing now; Slovakia, Sardinia and Poland planned within three months.
Pitched roof — wind separates and accelerates at the ridge
Flat roof — accelerated flow at the leading edge, turbulent wake behind
Testing is complete; the full facility report is pending confirmation before publication — see Technology.
Report pendingWill be published here as the four pilot installations (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Sardinia, Poland) go live — anonymised where required.
Coming after pilotsCE marking, electrical standards, and building code compliance — see Technology.
