Solar shingles are far less obtrusive than bolt-on modules.
Solar shingles and solar roofing are examples of new “thin-film” photovoltaic technology referred to as “building-integrated photovoltaics,” or BIPV. Solar shingles are designed in the standard size and shape of asphalt shingles so that they can be unobtrusively integrated into an asphalt shingle roof. Solar roofing, or BIPV, can take the form of solar shingles or roofing tiles that contain solar cells.
Solar Roof complements your home’s architecture while turning sunlight into electricity. With an integrated Powerwall battery, energy collected during the day is stored and made available any time, effectively turning your home into a personal utility. Glass solar tiles are so durable they are warrantied for the lifetime of your house, or infinity, whichever comes first.
Made with tempered glass, Solar Roof tiles are more than three times stronger than standard roofing tiles.
