Swedish photovoltaic (PV) manufacturer Clix Steel Profile has partnered with metal roofing firm Midsummer to develop a cost-effective building-integrated solar roofing system, certified for pitches as steep as 5 degrees. Clix Steel Profile's thin, flexible copper indium gallium selenide solar cells are integrated at the factory, reducing time and cost, and have a range of uses, from portable power plants to landfill covers. Forthcoming regulations in Europe and some US states require the mandatory installation of solar PV in new commercial and residential buildings.
