Plan photovoltaics for warehouses, commercial halls and industrial halls

Whether it's a flat roof or a pitched roof, everything is free of roof penetration.

Politicians are getting serious, the new climate protection law, the heart of the Green Deal , is driving measures and developments forward. Legal regulations for new commercial buildings with photovoltaics requirements already apply in some federal states.

What is roof penetration free?

With a roof-penetration-free photovoltaic roof installation, no holes have to be drilled through the roof or other interventions have to be made. Sloped gable and monopitch roofs, which are designed with bitumen or foil covering, could previously hardly be realized without roof penetration or only with great effort.

With the METIS mounting system from T.Werk, photovoltaic projects can also be easily implemented on these roofs. Thanks to a wind report at the IFI Institute in Aachen, the necessary ballasting could be reduced to a minimum.

The flat roof solution with distinction

The flat roof mounting system for 10°, 12° and 15° south elevations or east-west elevations with a 12° inclination. Wind tunnel tested, time-saving and quick to assemble.

What lies ahead for logistics, commerce and industry?

Whether office buildings, industrial halls, parking garages, warehouses, commercial buildings or production halls for non-residential buildings, photovoltaic systems are becoming mandatory with the new Climate Protection Act.

Bremen even goes one step further. It affects all buildings such as roofs for new buildings, schools and daycare centers, existing buildings, parking spaces, facades and open spaces. However, it is not yet clear when it will become mandatory.

Baden-Württemberg is planning to make it mandatory for non-residential buildings in 2022. It will then come into force for all buildings in the future.

In Hamburg, the photovoltaic requirement will come into force from 2023. Some things already apply now. The same applies in Bavaria, including for new commercial buildings. New residential buildings will start in 2022.

Other federal states will follow suit. What and when exactly should be implemented and how is still mostly unclear and confusing nationwide.
