Solar Power Price Display is the first PWM segment display operated independently with solar power.
“Go green with PWM!” said PWM President & CEO Wolfgang Manz. “Solar Power Price Display is a sustainable solution and ideal for places without reliable access to electricity.”
PWM is the global leader in electronic price signs with its cutting-edge SMD LED technology providing reliability, durability, and visibility.
Solar Power Price Display, PWM's new clean energy solution, features all the following:
Price changes with Solar Power Price Display can be made via one of three options:
Data Connection for Solar Power Price Display can be made by either data line or wireless.
One of the big advantages of using the Solar Power Price Display is that reducing energy consumption can help boost margins at convenience stores (c-stores) and other price sign operators.
“Spiraling energy costs and a renewed awareness of the environment have put green initiatives at the top of the agenda for the global convenience industry,” says the National Association of Convenience Stores (NACS) Green Toolkit.
The Green Toolkit says adopting sustainable strategies is not only good for the planet, but good for business for the following reasons:
“Surveys in Europe and North America have found that high percentages (between 70 percent and 79 percent) of consumers are concerned about the effects of climate change and are interested in green technology,” says the NACS.
Adding PWM’s Solar Power Price Display is a great way for C-stores to phase in green solutions.
“You can phase in some of these changes over time, such as when you replace equipment, remodel or build a new store,” recommends the NACS.
Solar Power Price Display can be part of a C-store solar program that could also include installing photovoltaic (PV) cells on roof shingles or by using solar collectors. PV cells convert sunlight directly to electricity through semiconductors. Solar collectors absorb sunlight and provide low-temperature heat used for hot water or space heating.
Perhaps the best place for convenience stores to use solar panels is on the gas station canopy
Trimming electricity costs is just one of the benefits of harnessing the power of the sun for price signs.
Here are the benefits of utilizing the Solar Power Price Display:
Also, depending on your location, there might be government incentives, tax credits, or rebates available for businesses that invest in renewable energy solutions like solar price signs. These incentives can further reduce the overall cost of installation.
“In a competitive market, using solar price signs can help gas stations and convenience stores stand out from the crowd, showcasing their innovation and willingness to adopt new technologies,” says Manz.
