# Heritage Building-Blending Solar Panels Dyaqua Designs the New Invisible Solar Panels By Amy Duong | Published 2023-03-06 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invisible-solar References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2023/03/05/invisible-solar-panels-fit-aesthetics-of-heritage-buildings/)  Dyaqua designs the new Invisible Solar Panels that are a perfect solution for [renewable power sources](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solar-electric-pavilion) and aids in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Notably, it is designed to blend into historical and heritage buildings without disrupting the design language due to the futuristic look of traditional solar panels. The Invisible Solar Panels resemble the look of barrel clay tiles that are actually made with cells that lie underneath in order to [generate solar energy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/florian-busch-architects) and power the building. Each panel is able to reach a peak energy capacity of 7.5 watts and it weighs about 2 kilograms per tile. Additionally, these tiles can also be used for siding or pavement as it also functions as [surface protection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motorized-window-shades).
