3. Main Features & Advantages:
3.1 Off-grid Solar Energy System
Integrated BIPV Design: 2.52kWp solar panels act as the cabin’s exterior “skin” (not an add-on), maximizing energy harvest while maintaining a minimalist aesthetic.
10.24kWh Energy Storage: Provides 72 hours of uninterrupted backup power for air conditioning, lighting, kitchen appliances, and bathroom fixtures, eliminating reliance on the grid.
Zero Carbon Emissions: Runs entirely on clean solar energy, aligning with global carbon-neutral tourism and sustainable development goals.
3.2 Durable & Comfortable Prefab Structure
Robust Construction: Thickened steel frame + aviation-grade aluminum cladding + triple-layer insulation ensures resistance to typhoons, heavy rain, and extreme cold (down to -20°C), with a 50-year service life.
High-performance Envelope: 110-series thermal break aluminum frames with Low-E triple-glazed glass (6+9+6+9+6) for superior thermal and acoustic insulation, keeping the interior cozy and quiet.
Compact Layout: 5.7×2.2×2.5m dimensions with 12.4㎡ of usable space, optimized into a 1-bedroom, 1-living room, and 1-bathroom (wet-dry separation) for maximum functionality.
3.3 Rapid Deployment & Flexibility
Factory Pre-assembled: Fully finished with interior walls, flooring, furniture, and utilities—shipped as a complete unit.
2-Hour On-site Setup: Only requires crane installation and basic connection, ready for occupancy or operation on the same day.
Modular & Reusable: Can be combined with other cabins for expanded space or fully relocated without demolition, reducing long-term costs.
3.4 ️Fully Equipped Interior
Standard Inclusions: Smart lighting, blackout curtains, wall-mounted AC, 40L water heater, smart toilet, bathroom cabinet, and shower set.
