Complex requirements on site: different roof pitches, alignments and weather influences
‘With the S-Dome Small and MiniRail, we were able to optimally solve the requirements on the demanding building type with its different pitches and orientations. The S-Dome Small offers a simple 10° elevation for the trapezoidal sheet and with the MiniFive elevation on the MiniRail rail we tilted the modules by an additional 5°. This was important for a good cleaning of the modules in case of rain and for a fast sliding of the snow cover in case of heavy snowfall, as it happens in the region around Turin. In addition, with this combination we have achieved a comparatively low load of 12 kg/sqm,’ says Ing. Giuseppe Guida, Managing Director GM Solar.
‘The PV system, with a nominal power of 1.317 kWp, not only covers part of its energy needs, but also enables a reduction of 800 tonnes of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere per year. In addition, part of the energy generated is used to charge electric cars. A great result for our client and an exciting project in which we were able to show again how we as EPC develop tailor-made solutions!’
