WHAT IS SOLROOF?<\/mark> – PHOTOVOLTAICS
HIDDEN IN THE ROOF<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

SOLROOF is a BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaics) system – a solution where photovoltaics are an integral part of the roof, not a separate addition. By combining active (energy-producing) and inactive parts, you get a uniform roof covering that also serves as a power source for your home. As part of the SOLROOF system, we provide a complete roof: steel panels integrated with FIT VOLT photovoltaic modules (active), complementary FIT steel panels (inactive), flashing, optimizers, inverter, other installation components, and, at the customer’s request, a steel gutter system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

MODULAR ROOF PANEL FIT<\/strong>

The FIT<\/strong> panel is a steel inactive part of the SOLROOF roof, which complements the integrated FIT VOLT photovoltaic panels (active part), creating a cohesive and watertight surface. Its appearance refers to traditional roofs with an alternating sheet arrangement, but it is made using modern installation technologies and XCarb\u00ae recycled and renewably produced<\/strong> steel, which is characterized by a low carbon footprint and high durability. The FIT<\/strong> steel panels provide a durable and aesthetic complement to the roof surface, guaranteeing its watertightness and resistance. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The integrated FIT VOLT<\/strong> panel (active part) is a fundamental component of the SOLROOF<\/strong> system \u2013 it combines the function of roof covering and a photovoltaic panel. It is responsible for harnessing solar energy and converting it into electricity.
Thanks to the use of monocrystalline PERC<\/strong> cells combined with a steel base using glass-steel<\/strong> technology, the panel is watertight, durable, and resistant to varying weather conditions. FIT VOLT<\/strong> is a modern solution that enables the production of energy from sunlight without the need for traditional PV module installation. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The SolarEdge optimizer is an electronic component that increases the operating efficiency of FIT VOLT panels. Each optimizer operates independently for each pair of FIT VOLT panels, so shade, dirt, or differences in sunlight do not affect the performance of the entire system.
The Safe DC\u2122<\/strong> function automatically reduces voltage in the event of a fault, which increases the safety of the installation’s use. The optimizer is responsible for the maximum efficiency and safe operation of the photovoltaic system.<\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
