Symbiotic Partners

Generating renewable energy on site towards net zero emissions. Photovoltaics (PV) are often installed on the rooftop to produce electricity but can advance further as a biosolar green roof combo. The combination of green roof and solar technologies are the ultimate sustainable duo.  Not only do they generate clean energy, they also manage stormwater and enhance biodiversity. 

Better Together

  • Benefit from active electricity production and passive energy saving simultaneously 
  • Plants cool the PV, increasing their efficiency in generating electricity 
  • Better roof membrane protection from heat aging and UV damage 

Smart Design

  • Pre-vegetated plant mats are flexible and go under panels and around supports  
  • Low profile meadow and sedum plants are low maintenance and do not block or shade the PV
  • Growing media and plants can act as ballast to secure the PV against wind uplift

Future Ready

  • PVs actively generate renewable energy necessary to achieve net zero emissions 
  • Green roofs reduce heat flow and lowers energy demand for space conditioning 
  • Ultimate sustainable roof technology combo to future proof our buildings 
  • Offer opportunity for agrivoltaics and to vertically integrate PVs into rooftop agriculture systems
