What do you think of Flextron for a zinc roof?

The Flextron System is ultra-thin at 2.5mm and contain integrated solar cells, which are then pre-bonded to an approved roofing material, in this case GreenCoat PLX Pro in a complimentary Mountain Grey.

Prices seem to be at a premium currently, unless you know differently. I've looked into similar to retro-fit on my aluminium roof.

 

As well as the value, I didn't get an answer I was happy with regards how to replace them. The roof should have a 60 year life, but the PV 20 - 25, so at some point they will need replacing. When I asked, the manufactures had not run any trials with regards removing the modules and if damage could be avoided.

Exactly my concern and question when I spoke with them.

Interesting. I see that working on metal seam and maybe slate. Wonder where the connections are?

There's a fly-lead connecting to a small junction box at one end, that allows the arrays to be daisy-chained together. If "designed in" the fly-leads will be covered by a profile capping.

I think the name is cool.
