Specially developed substructure

The three green roof areas have two special features: Firstly, they have different slopes and secondly, the city of Heidelberg stipulates a minimum distance between the roof cladding and the solar module. Due to this, the K2 project manager Stephan Klopfer realised the system with the help of the flexible Triangle System.

‘The K2 team and especially Mr Klopfer provided us with the best support for the Heidelberg project and sought and found an individual solution for the complex requirements of the roof areas. We are very grateful to K2 Systems for this great service’ says Johannes Groß, Sales Manager Large Projects at WIRCON GmbH.

Construction components

The mounting system for the 252 solar modules is the Triangle System, which consists of the SolidRail mounting rail, the elevation and the SpeedRail for underground mounting on paving slabs. The universal clamps OneMid and OneEnd were also used.
