Technical FAQs 4

Should solar panels be installed over traditional roofs?

Solar panels installed over traditional roofs can suffer from weather-related problems and compromise the roof construction. The EU-funded TilePlus project designed new roof tiles with embedded tough photovoltaic cells. This would allow millions of homes across Europe to produce their own energy.

What is a solar roof?

Solar Roof is comprised of both glass solar tiles and steel roofing tiles. Glass solar tiles produce energy, while architectural-grade steel tiles add longevity and corrosion resistance to your roof. Both are durable, strong and engineered for all-weather protection.

Are solar roof tiles reshaping Europe's urban landscape?

From solar roof tiles that preserve architectural aesthetics to transparent solar windows harvesting energy without compromising natural light, these innovations are reshaping Europe’s urban landscape.

Are solar roof tiles eco-friendly?

In contrast, SRTs provide an eco-friendly solution by combining traditional building roof tiles with solar laminate. This integration represents an application of BIPV. SRTs provide insulation to homes, similar to traditional roof tiles. They serve as clean energy sources and have an aesthetic appearance (Carvalho et al., 2019).
