With the Topfix 200, the system provider IBC Solar has developed an in-house mounting system for universal installation on pitched roofs with general building inspectorate approval from the DIBt.
With its Miralux substructures, Richard Brink offers robust and easy-to-install systems for photovoltaic installations. The company is now presenting some innovations.
The Bavarian manufacturer T-Werk presents the two carport systems Helios Beta and Gamma. The scalable systems can be used either as pure carports with a trapezoidal sheet metal roof or as solar carports with the manufacturer's mounting systems. T-Werk has designed the new models specifically for commercial car parks.
The company Noreiks presents a clever mounting aid for solar systems. However, the system can also attach air conditioning units, ventilation systems and other technical installations - without screws or concrete weights.
The new photovoltaic clip, or PV clip for short, from Fischer secures several hundred solar modules to the facade of an existing building in the northern Black Forest. The innovation, which is used in a system with a substructure and sliding nut, secures the solar system to the modern building envelope.
Premium Mounting Technologies has developed a brand new mounting system for flat roofs to complement the proven PMT EVO 2.1. The new PMT X118 system is made of steel and is not only suitable for large roofs with few disruptive surfaces.
The flexible Maas-PV Roof system from Maas Profilzentrum is a customised solution for every roof and every wall. The non-penetrative installation of the system prevents leaks and corrosion damage.
The manufacturer Aerocompact has brought the rail-based flat roof system Compactflat SN2 onto the market. With the new SN2 Q PLUS variant, solar modules up to 1310 x 2500 millimetres in size can now also be installed in an upright format.
The Rapid-A 45 Pro Max roof hook from manufacturer Schletter is made of aluminium and is therefore around 70 percent lighter than comparable steel roof hooks. It covers the majority of applications on tiled roofs and is suitable for higher snow loads and wind loads.
The Austrian supplier Aerocompact has a wide range of roof hooks in its portfolio. The latest product is a roof replacement tile with an integrated roof hook: the Compactpitch XM-F Reptile.
The new Vento system for green roofs from K2 Systems complements the already established flat roof systems. It combines the advantages of green roofs and photovoltaic systems.
The new solution from Kalzip and DiconaI combines two products in one: A non-roof-penetrating standing seam clamp for new or existing Kalzip roofs. And an interface that is compatible with the DiconaI mounting system.
K2 Systems offers two different systems for pitched roof installation. The single-rail system is particularly suitable for projects that require quick and cost-effective installation.
PMT offers a mounting system that allows for efficient and safe installation of large photovoltaic modules on flat roofs featuring Push-&-Click technology.
Manufacturer S-Flex has developed an insertion system that is suitable for sloping roofs as well as facades. Basically, the system is based on two C-rails that are screwed to the wall connection. The installer inserts the modules between them.
Aerocompact has developed Compactpitch XM-F Reptile, a universal solution for mounting PV modules on pitched roofs that is compatible with a wide variety of roof tiles.
Equipped with a load-distributing cement coating, the so-called Solarrock from the manufacturer Rockwool is suitable for flat roofs subject to higher loads.
Teos Energy commissioned a 41 kW solar PV power plant in waste disposal center Leppe/Germany.
A sail-shaped mounting system for flat roofs, a new grid operating system, a bifacial solar module with limited environmental impact and an integrated solar roof system without supports. Here are our top products of the week:
The sail-shaped system from Sun Ballast is a solar mounting solution for residential and commercial applications that combines aerodynamics with durability and sustainability.
The manufacturer Aerocompact has now developed a flat roof system for the installation of bifacial modules on green roofs. The high elevation improves reflection and thus ensures higher yields.
Altec presents the Optiflex-10 flat roof system. The supports for elevation can be used for south as well as east-west orientations and the position of the clamping can also be varied.
Erthos recently announced the signing of an agreement with Industrial Sun for a new utility-scale solar project in Texas, US. This will be mounted on Erthos’ innovative mounting system.
Schletter presents a new version of the Tracker, which has been specially optimised for the use of large-format modules. The compact system requires less material per kilowatt of output.
Aleo’s new Leo series are also available as solar roof tiles. With Leo Sol, Aleo is launching a half-cell panel. It can be integrated into the roof surface using the Solrif mounting system.
