Solar systems

Modern and innovative solar architecture for every requirement

Kalzip solar roof systems integrate photovoltaic modules into the building envelope for on-site renewable energy generation. The AluPlusSolar system incorporates CIGS thin-film solar cells adhered to the aluminum standing seam panels, offering a seamless, lightweight solution for new constructions. The SolarClad system provides a retrofit option for existing structures, attaching flexible PV laminates without roof penetration. Both systems optimize energy generation, even in low-light conditions, while maintaining the roof’s aesthetic appeal.

With the FA PV seam clamp, it is also possible to retrofit existing Kalzip roofs with elevated/clamped PV modules. Kalzip & DICONAL have developed a new seam clamp that enables this application.

The advantages of a solar roof:

Maximum design freedom thanks to a roof-integrated photovoltaic system without additional components
Lightweight design (7 kg/m² system weight), adaptable to various roof geometries because of the flexible PV module (AluplusSolar)
Retrofitting of existing Kalzip roofs for all construction widths with a very low dead weight of 3.3 kg/m² (SolarClad)
Third party DIBt approval Ref Z-14.4-560-Fastening-clips-for-Kalzip-standing-seam- profiles ensures system compatibility and safety
Optimum utilisation of solar energy even in low light conditions

Applications of PV Roof Structures:

Roof integration: Kalzip solar modules can be integrated into the roof to provide an aesthetically pleasing and seamless solution for power generation.
Industrial applications: Kalzip solar systems are suitable for industrial applications such as warehouses, factory halls or production buildings.
Public facilities: Solar systems can be installed on public buildings such as schools, community centres or libraries to ensure a sustainable energy supply and reduce energy costs.
