SOLon BR for bitumen roofs
Vertical PV for bitumen roofs
SOLon BR is the vertical PV variant of the SOLYCO SOLon system family for flat roofs with bitumen waterproofing. The system enables photovoltaics without roof penetration – with EPDM overlay, bifacial glass-glass modules, and project-specific planning for bitumen roofs.
Bitumen roofs are widespread in existing buildings and place high demands on PV mounting, sealing, and structural integrity. SOLon BR was developed for flat roofs with bitumen waterproofing and enables vertical PV installation without screws into the roof membrane.
The EPDM layer ensures the system remains securely in place on the roof surface. At the same time, the bitumen waterproofing remains untouched, as SOLon BR is installed without roof penetration.
For bitumen roofs
Vertical PV solution for flat roofs with bitumen waterproofing
Low surface load
Lightweight system for roofs with limited load-bearing capacity.
EPDM base
Designed K2 base for secure footing on bitumen roofs
Bifacial yield
Electricity generation in the optimal east/west autumn/spring profile
No penetration
Quick installation without interfering with the roof seal
Verified structural analysis
Windkanalgetestet und für Dachneigungen bis 10° geeignet.
East-West yield profile
Electricity in the morning and afternoon
Thanks to its vertical east-west orientation, SOLon BR generates solar power particularly in the morning and afternoon. This yield profile differs from conventional flat-roof PV systems with a strong midday peak.
The bifacial glass-glass modules utilize light on both the front and back. Reflections from roof surfaces and the surrounding environment can further enhance the energy yield potential.
Commercial roofs
Vertical PV for commercial flat roofs with bitumen waterproofing.
Annual profile
SOLYCO SOLon distributes solar power throughout the day and year.
Public buildings
For municipal and institutional buildings with bitumen roofs.
Plannable with SOLplan
