Title: A better understanding of Solar SSR


1
A better understanding of Solar SSR
Solar Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV)
for Standing Seam AND Exposed Fastener Roof
Systems
2
  • The Solar SSR System
  • Total system working together to harvest power
  • Standing seam applications
  • Exposed fastener applications
  • System sizes
  • System costs
  • Fabrals offering

3
Total System
On grid system is shown Off grid systems
require battery storage between DC Disconnect and
Inverter
4
The Total System Working together to harvest
power.
  • Triple-junction technology captures three wave
    lengths (red, green/yellow and blue) of sunlight
  • Panels are electrically daisy-chained together to
    maximize output
  • Power is converted from DC to AC and is
    returned to the grid
  • Optional Data Acquisition System provides
    real-time analysis of energy production

5
The Total System
  • The Solar SSR panels are
  • Highly flexible, lightweight and durable
  • More efficient at producing electricity than
    alternative polycrystalline solar technology,
    especially in shadows and/or low light
  • Efficient up to 185F
  • A peel and stick back

6
The Total System
  • No roof penetrations to install
  • Eliminates additional structural support
    requirements
  • Maintains serviceability and walkability of the
    roof
  • Roof slopes between 112 and 2112
  • Curving is permitted
  • Tested to very high hail and wind resistance
    ratings extremely durable
  • Extremely light weight at 0.75 psf

7
Standing Seam Applications
  • Can be applied to existing metal roofs or new
    standing seam panels
  • Standing Seam panels must be at least 16 seam to
    seam
  • Fabral Enduracote and Flurobond paint systems
    are approved
  • Solar SSR panels are field installed can be
    adhered prior or post to installing standing seam
    panels

Architectural/Commercial
Post Frame/Residential
9
Exposed Fastener Applications -A PATENT PENDING
APPLICATION -
  • BIVP solar thin film laminates can be adhered to
    hemmed flat sheets that are one foot longer than
    the solar panels
  • Flat sheets are then attached over exposed
    fastener systems

System Sizes
  • Wide range of power sizes to choose from,
    depending upon budget and building requirements.
  • Standard system sizes 1.5, 3, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60,
    120 and 240 Kw
  • The system requires approximately 600 s.f. for 3
    kW

15
Watts?
Watt Unit of power Volt x Amp Watt Hour
Unit of energy equal to 1 watt of power operating
for one hour. 1,000 W (watt) 1 kW (Kilowatt)
5kW system x 1hour 5 kW-h Average 3.5-4 hours
a day of 100 efficiency Average day5kW system
x 3.8 hours 18 kW-h / Day
18kW-h will light 7.5 100w light bulbs for 24
hours
16
Typical Power Production Percentages
  • Commercial buildings 11.7 17.4 kWh per sq.ft.
    floor area
  • Residential buildings Average house uses 11,000
    kWh per year
  • 5kW system produces approximately 5,000 8,000
    kWh per year
  • 1.5kW Pennsylvania 2,020 kWh / yr
  • 3kW Virginia 4,077 kWh / yr
  • 5kW Washington 6,389 kWh / yr
  • 5kW N. Carolina 6,939 kWh / yr
  • 5kW N. Carolina 7,201 kWh / yr
  • 5kW Pennsylvania 6,753 kWh / yr
  • 10kW Wisconsin 12,155 kWh / yr
  • 15kw Wisconsin 18,215 kWh / yr

17
Solar SSR
Other Factors
  • Azimuth angle (direction the roof faces, SE, S,
    SW, etc)
  • South or SW is often considered the best
  • Sunlight
  • Shade
  • Snow cover
  • Module/Panel Width 15.5 PV width
  • 16 SSR most efficient
  • 18 20 SSR wasted space

18
What Fabral Sells
  • Fabral sells
  • Solar SSR panels
  • Cable Trays
  • Cable Tray Covers
  • Rubber Grommets
  • S-5! Mini Clamps
  • Our customers must obtain the other components
    themselves
  • We provide suggested manufacturers and contacts
    to call

19
System Costs
  • Total estimated system price
  • (less the metal roof)
  • 3kw (rated DC, 3.264kw) 25,786
  • 5kw (rated DC, 5.44kw) 41,344

20
Installation
  • Metal panels must be clean and smooth with no
    stiffening ribs, striations or embossing
  • Thin-film solar laminate is adhered directly onto
    the exposed face of the SSR panel in the field or
    shop in temperatures between 50 and 100F before
    roof installation
  • Video available online

21
Installation
  • Fabral specifications clearly outline the scope
    of work and installation responsibilities
  • Fabral manufactures and delivers the entire
    system to specification
  • The system is installed in two steps
  • The BIPV roofing panels by the trained roofing
    contractor
  • The electrical system by the electrical
    subcontractor

22
Warranty
  • The Fabral Solar SSR system comes with a
    Fabral/EnergyPeak 25-year manufacturers
    warranty
  • 25 Years

23
ROI
  • The perfect start
  • Can be processed via paper or online at
    www.fabral.com/ROI.php
  • Calculations are available for all power size
    options
  • All current federal rebates, state and local
    incentives, utility provider incentives,
    renewable energy credits and depreciation are
    shown
  • ROI well under 10 years is common
  • About 7 days for results

24
Tax Credit Advantages
30 Solar IRS tax credit is available on PV
systems - Extended through 2016 - Previous cap
on residential PV systems has been REMOVED,
significantly increasing the tax incentives for
residential applications - Many state and local
utility rebates exist PLUS dont forget -
Homeowner Energy Credit of 30 for projects using
metal roofing meeting ENERGY STAR (cool colors)
requirements - Maximum credit is 1500 - Does
not include installation costs - Must be
installed during 2009 or 2010
25
Drawings Specifications
  • Fabral will supply all required AutoCad drawings,
    electrical schematics and Masterspec
    specifications for both the electrical and
    roofing sections
  • Electrical schematics and specifications should
    be given to the electrical engineer for review
