I would like to take the opportunity with this and other blog entries on the subject of “mounting systems” to present the typical mounting options to PV plant operators and installers for the most frequent roof types and give them recommendations.

Cold stores require a great deal of energy – mainly when the sun is shining and it is warm outside. The leading Norwegian food logistics provider ASKO has Installed a PV system on the roof of a cold store in Vestby.

It enhances a current system which was put into operation on the roof of an ASKO dry fuel storage facility in 2014. The entire system has a capacity of 1 megawatt peak (MWp), producing around 550 MWh of solar power each year which the company will use entirely for its own consumption.(more…)

Modules with an output of 1.5 megawatt peak are IKEA’s contribution to greater sustainability. (more…)
How long does it take to set up mounting systems for photovoltaic systems? We entered our IBC AeroFix into a race test conducted by the specialist magazine Photovoltaik. (more…)
