Why Seaular?
Whereas the application of PV modules for generating sustainable electricity is increasing among consumers, the popularity of solar thermal systems is lagging behind. This development is partly caused due to the lack of a monitoring system that presents and visualises how the system is working and what it is generating within a day or a year.
The currently used controllers are not user friendly and do not give the consumer enough insight in the performance of their solar thermal system. The read out of these controllers is quite technical and therefor it becomes difficult for the consumer to verify if their system is working properly and what it actually brings them in terms of generated sustainable solar thermal energy. Also the controller is often mounted in the attic or the basement next to the boiler, where people only come occasionally.
​
This is why Seaular has been created as a spin-off company by Ik ben Ra.
A dutch company that specialises in advising, engineering, construction, maintenance and monitoring of solar thermal energy systems. Ik ben Ra wants to encourage the consumer to individually generate their own sustainable solar thermal energy. To achieve this it was necessary to introduce Seaular as a new company. Seaular focuses on developing hardware and software to provide the consumer with all information needed to learn more about their solar thermal system.
