With the Solar Full Roof, the Estonian manufacturer Solarstone has developed a system for the complete roof integration of solar modules. The Solarstone modules form the actual roof covering.

Manufacturer Wattstone offers a solution for wall mounting solar modules without protruding components. The advantage of the mounting systems is the floating mounting of the modules in insertion rails, which ensures that they are load-free and thus increases their service life.

The company Elexon offers a new solar carport. As a joint venture of SMA, the Elexon development team was able to draw on the company's product expertise in solar technology.

MO Energy Systems from Austria has developed a modular standard solution for solar facades. The scalable solution is suitable for existing and new buildings. It can be connected to concrete as well as brick and timber facades.

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.

K2 Systems has developed three mounting systems for the integration of solar modules into the facade. These cover the installation of ventilated solar facades on trapezoidal sheet metal, on sandwich panels on masonry and on concrete.

Envelon has developed a complete solution for solar facades. The substructure is based on rails that are glued to the back of the modules.

The facade on the new administration building of the Gronau municipal utility in the western Münsterland region will be under solar power in the future. A pioneering work. The BIPV modules manufactured by ASCA were integrated into facade glass by BGT Bischoff Glastechnik.

Ergosun's integrated solar roof panels are installed like conventional roof tiles without interfering with the roof structure. According to the manufacturer, the current load per solar cell has been optimised, thus increasing the efficiency.

Envelon manufactures solar modules in a variety of colours that are sold as frameless glass elements as a complete system.

The module manufacturer Meyer Burger is delivering the first products of the solar roof tile Tile. The German wholesaler Dachdecker-Einkauf Süd (DE Süd) is managing the first pilot projects with the new solar roof tile and implementing them together with its roofing customers.

GoodWe has launched its latest product – the Galaxy series: A BIPV module designed specifically for industrial and commercial applications.

Nominated for an Intersolar Award in 2022, Solarstone’s BIPV framing kit is a clever way of framing BIPV modules requiring no screws or glue.

The renovation rate in the building sector is still too low to achieve the energy transition within the timeframe envisaged by the German government. One step in this direction can be a greater degree of prefabrication of building components.

Autarq's solar roof tiles are installed like traditional roof tiles. No changes are necessary to the roof: the weight is approximately the same as the original tile.
