AEROCOMPACT establishes solar racking for bifacial panels and also green roofing systems

• Austrian racking producer AEROCOMPACT has created a flat roof system developed for bifacial solar modules as well as arrays mounted on green roofings.

"Bifacial modules are changing standard foil modules a growing number of, particularly in the U.S. The high altitude of our new system improves reflection and also ensures higher yields," stated Philipp Pejcl, AEROCOMPACT item supervisor.

Unlike monofacial models, bifacial panels can obtain light from the front of the glass and the rear of the module.

CompactFLAT GS can be utilized to set up framed modules on foil and asphalt roof coverings-- with as well as without thermal insulation under the waterproofing-- in addition to on concrete and also gravel roofing systems. CompactFLAT GS15 has a tilt angle of 15 ° and also is suitable for mounting planetary systems in south alignment; and AEROCOMPACT has actually made the CompactFLAT GS10PLUS system with a tilt angle of 10 ° for east/west alignment. With south orientation, there is no need for a wind deflector that stops the reflection of light.

Considering that it has a distance to the roofing system surface area of around 40 centimeters, the system is likewise matched for green roof coverings.

"The plants obtain sufficient light and can be kept with no trouble," claimed Markus Burger, growth manager at AEROCOMPACT.

CompactFLAT GS is composed of several components and does not call for lengthy rails for installment. AEROCOMPACT provides a 25-year warranty on the racking.

AEROCOMPACT will display CompactFLAT GS at Solar Energy International at RE+ in Anaheim, California, from September 19 to 22 at booth # 140.
