Solar Tiles and Slates

We often talk to customers who as part of a full house re-roofing, are considering the installation of on roof solar panels after the completion of the roof.  Whenever we come across such a project, we always recommend the integration of solar electric roof tiles and solar slates.

In effect, clients are then able to combine two jobs into one single project; thereby cutting down on costs, speeding up the installation of a solar energy system and improving the end appearance of a combined new roof and solar system.

Azure Eco uses Solar Century’s C21e solar tiles and slates who are recognised as two of the industry’s leading solar products and has won a host of awards.

Features of the C21e solar roof tile:

• No extra planning is needed – C21e sits flush with the roof as with any standard tile or slate.
• No specialist skills are required – all solar roofing work is carried out by the roofing contractor / solar installer.
• The solar roof tile has a high power output – equating to less than 8 square metres per kWp.
• The integration of back mounted contact strips  increase effective collector area and subsequently reduce surface glare.
• The power output of the tiles is  guaranteed for an impressive twenty years.
