Why choose the solar kit?
4 good reasons to become energy independent:
Immediate installation, NO CIVIL WORKS
E-bike charging without a grid connection.
No more trenches, permits, delays or coordination with an electrician. The solar kit can be installed directly on an existing or new shelter.
- Trench + cabling
- Meter + electricity contract
- 4 to 8 weeks lead time
- “Who pays for the electricity?”
- Direct installation on shelter
- Free energy
- Quick commissioning
- Zero complexity
Strengthen the impact
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Solar power strengthens your project’s eligibility for funding. For many funders and calls for projects, it is a strong sign of sustainable development and is often valued more highly than a standard bike shelter.
“Without solar power, no funding”: a frequent criterion for public projects and regional calls for projects.
A concrete, visible sign of your commitment
A bike shelter that produces its own energy makes a visible statement. The solar kit is a clear sign of modern, tangible action—ideal for articles, LinkedIn posts, on-site signage and inaugurations.
- Public authorities: Showcase project for sustainable mobility policy
- Companies: Concrete and visible CSR action for employees
- Campus: Modernity and ecological commitment displayed

FAQ Solar kit
Everything you need to know about our autonomous e-bike charging solution.
We size each kit for 4 days of operation without sunlight, based on a defined usage profile and your location. The actual operating time depends on three factors: local solar exposure, orientation and shading, and actual usage. The sizing study is included in each quote.
No, that’s the whole point of the solar kit! No trenching, no grid connection and no electricity contract. The kit is completely autonomous: solar panels + batteries + inverter. Ideal for isolated sites or when the electrical connection is complex/expensive.
Yes, we use technology LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate), deemed more stable and safer than other lithium chemistries. The batteries are UN38.3 certified and the system integrates a fire suppression device which is triggered automatically in the event of an incident.
Yes, the kit is scalable. Its modular architecture lets you add batteries as your needs grow: more e-bikes on site, new charging points or seasonal changes. Size it for today and expand it tomorrow.
A mobile app and web portal are included. Built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. You monitor energy production, battery status, receive alerts and can perform remote diagnostics. Ideal for preventive maintenance and to communicate internally about your commitment.
The kit is designed for seamless integration with ByCommute shelters (mounting hardware, cable routing, appearance and warranty coverage). It can also be adapted to existing shelters depending on their configuration. Contact us for a feasibility study.
No one! This is one of the major advantages. No more internal discussions about “who pays for the electricity?” no internal recharging and no benefits in kind to administer. The energy is free, produced on site by the sun.
