Mounting systems

Combining solar with a green roof

K2 Systems already has variable solutions for green roofs in its portfolio: these range from the ballast-optimised K2 Dome systems to the flexible Triangle-Multiangle system and Tiltup Vento for various roof connections.

K2 GreenRoof Vento masters the challenges of installing solar systems on green roofs. This means keeping the plants at a distance while allowing them to grow. For example, the development team has taken care to minimise the disturbance to the greenery with small feet so that low-growing mosses and succulents can continue to receive light and water.

We are also featuring mounting systems as our Topic of the Week. Have a look around www.pveurope.eu to see the latest.

Increasing the distance between the module and the roof prevents the modules from being shaded by excessive vegetation. Modules can be mounted at an angle of either ten or 15 degrees. The maximum module size for this Vento system is 2,400 by 1,350 millimetres. (mfo)
