While solar panels are traditionally retrofitted to an existing rooftop, it’s becoming more common (especially in newbuilds) to integrate the panels into the roof itself. With in roof PV, you end up with a sleeker, more attractive result.
If you are building a new property or re-doing a roof and want to install solar PV, it makes sense to look at roof integrated solar panels.
There are a few systems on the market, for example Viridian Solar and GSE. But one system in particular, Easy Roof Evolution, stands out if you want Velux® windows within the solar array.

Solar tiles, solar glass, solar facades, solar roofs, and in-roof systems are growing in popularity due to their ability to take the place of building elements whilst generating electricity and reducing running costs of the building.
Leading architects are no longer confining themselves to solar tiles and complete solar roofs, they are also specifying solar in atriums, in windows, as solar cladding, on bus stops and in car parks....
