Abstract:

In order to offer a cost effective production Solution for a Photovoltaic (PV) Roof system cosmetically similar to standard Slate roofs, the following Objectives were highlighted as key areas:

To develop a novel 3 head laser system to reduce PV processing time

To develop a polymer/mould combination that will function as a connector suitable for mass production and to capable of meeting PV IEC61646 standard

To develop a material/process combinations for roof mounting the PV Electra-Slates (ES)

The design specification of the Electra-Slate has been finalised and prototype parts produced to prove the concept in both installation and manufacturing. The desired manufacturing costs of the product can be achieved with conversion to a large scale manufacturing set up.
