Who Says Solar Can't Be Beautiful?
Effective even in shady conditions, these glass-free, lightweight panels are extremely durable and able to withstand even hurricane-force winds. There is no need for structural support or back ventilation. The laminates are simply fused to the surface of the roofing panel substrate.
Architects appreciate the fact that PVLs do not disrupt the natural lines of a structure but blend into the overall look and are perfect for curved applications.
LEED Credits
Currently, the use of photovoltaic laminates satisfies the LEED Energy and Atmosphere Credit 2, (renewable energy) and up to 3 points for generating 5%, 10% or 20% of a building's energy use through solar power. PVLs also meet the "Optimized Energy Efficiency Credit" and awards up to 10 points based on energy efficiency.
Further, a standing seam metal roof can earn up to an additional 7 points for Energy and Atmospheric Impact, material recyclability and building reuse.
COSTS
Installing a solar energy system can be a cost-efficient investment when considering long-term savings combined with the significant rebates and tax incentives available. See link below for more information.
