There are several different types of commercial solar PV systems available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Here are some of the most common types:
Roof-mounted solar PV systems: These are the most common type of commercial solar PV systems which are installed directly onto the metal cladded roof via a short sheet rail system. Solar PV systems can be installed to commercial and industrial flat roofs via specialist ballasted rack mount system(s), pitched to the optimum angle.
Ground-mounted solar PV systems: These are installed on the ground rather than on a roof. They are typically used when there is not enough roof space to accommodate a solar PV system or when the roof is not strong enough to support the weight of the solar panels.
Building-integrated solar PV systems: These are designed to be integrated into the design of a building, rather than being added on after construction. Clad-IT are preferred installers of the Kingspan power panel system which is a composite PIR insulated metal roof panel with integrated solar PV.
Solar carports: These are structures that are built to cover parking areas and provide shade for cars, while also generating electricity from the solar panels installed on the roof of the carport, which can be integrated with electrical vehicle charging points.
