Array’s solar modules go where traditional
solar can’t go.
Array solar modules are adaptable, lightweight, thin, flexible, aesthetically pleasing, easy to install, and efficient in partial shade. We offer two different module styles that can complement a variety of roof types.
SLIMFIT SERIES
If you invested in a metal standing seam roof, the SlimFit is your perfect solar solution.
FLEX SERIES
The Flex modules are the best solar solution for TPO membrane and flat roofs.
Our solar cells are made starting with high-quality stainless
steel, then layered with semiconductor materials only a few micrometers thick. The result is thin, lightweight and flexible solar. Array solar modules are 2 mm thick vs 100.0 mm for a traditional
silicon solar module.
Some of the leading environmental benefits
of CIGS solar panels are:
Producing CIGS panels uses significantly less energy to make than Silicon.
No silicon purification process
No glass
No heavy aluminum frame
No lead, cadmium, hydrofluoric acid, or hydrochloric acid
Requires less water to manufacture and recycles the little water used
At Array, materials are recycled when spent.
Array solar panels do not produce pollutants or release CO2 into the atmosphere
Efficient in the shade and low-light scenarios. Array modules are more light-sensitive, producing up to 15% more energy per year.
Array modules are more efficient than traditional silicon panels in partial shade. All modules have bypass diodes for each cell. When a cell is shaded by trees, snow, other buildings, or debris, only that individual cell stops producing power. Traditional solar panels have a bypass diode per string of cells. Therefore, if just one cell is covered, that whole string will not produce power. Since there are usually only three strings per panel, an entire panel can be knocked out if shaded across a single row.
As a result of CIGS technology, Array modules are more light-sensitive, producing up to 15% more energy per year. The increased efficiency is because they still generate energy in low-light situations, such as cloudy days, smokey conditions, or twilight hours. The increased sensitivity to light can be a massive benefit for those who live in areas with shorter days in the winters or an often cloudy environment such as the Pacific Northwest.
Easy installation. No penetration on the roof.
Array’s Flex and SlimFit Series is a thin, lightweight, flexible solar panel that lies flat, almost
invisible between the seams of a standing seam metal roof. For homeowners who value
aesthetics along with their solar power.
