Why choose the solar kit
4 good reasons to switch to energy autonomy
Immediate installation, without civil engineering
Recharge VAEwithout electrical connection.
No more trenches, authorizations, deadlines and electrician coordination. The solar kit is installed directly on the existing or new shelter.
- Trench + cabling
- Counter + subscription
- 4 to 8 weeks lead time
- “Who pays for the electricity?”
- Direct installation on shelter
- Free energy
- Quick commissioning
- Zero complexity
Strengthen sustainable development impact
Solar power boosts the eligibility of your project for financing.
For many funders and calls for projects,solar is a strong signal of sustainable development, often more valued than a simple bike shelter.
“If no solar → no help”: a frequent case in public projects and regional calls for projects.
A concrete and visible signal of your commitment
A bike shelter that produces its own energy,it’s seen and it’s said.
The solar kit is a visible symbol of modernity and tangible action. Perfect for communicating: articles, LinkedIn posts, on-site panels, inaugurations...
- Communities:Showcase project for sustainable mobility policy
- Companies:Concrete and visible CSR action by employees
- Campus:Modernity and ecological commitment displayed

FAQs Solar Kit
All the answers about our autonomous VAE charging solution
We size each kit to4 days of autonomy without sun, based on a defined usage and your geographic area. The exact autonomy depends on 3 parameters: area/sunlight, orientation/shading, and actual use.The sizing study is included in each quote.
No, that’s the whole point of the solar kit!Zero trenches, zero connections, zero subscriptions. The kit is completely autonomous: solar panels + batteries + inverter. Ideal for isolated sites or when the electrical connection is complex/expensive.
Yes, we use technologyLFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate), deemed more stable and safer than other lithium chemistries. The batteries are UN38.3 certified and the system integrates afire suppression devicewhich is triggered automatically in the event of an incident.
Yes, the kit is scalable.The modular architecture allows you to add batteries if your use increases: more VAE on site, new charging points, seasonal evolution... You size for today and scale tomorrow.
Amobile application and web portalare included. Built-in WiFi 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 forperfect integration with ByCommute shelters(fixings, cable routing, aesthetics, guarantees). It can also be adapted to existing shelters depending on their configuration. Contact us for a feasibility study.
Person !This is one of the major advantages. No more internal discussions about “who pays for the electricity?” no more re-invoicing, no more in-kind benefits to manage. The energy is free, produced on site by the sun.
