What if your roof could do more than just shelter you? Imagine a future where your building doesn’t just consume energy—it creates it. BIPV panels for roofs (Building-Integrated Photovoltaics roofing systems)—are turning that vision into reality by merging function, form, and renewable power.

Unlike traditional solar setups that add bulky panels on top of existing structures, BIPV replace conventional materials like stone facades, glass walls, or clay tiles. These cutting-edge BIPV solutions transform your roof, facade, or skylight into a solar power generator, without compromising design or durability.

Why settle for passive protection when your solar roof could actively slash electricity bills and lower your carbon footprint? Why choose between aesthetics and sustainability when BIPV solar roofing blends sleek architectural style with green energy?

But, can BIPV panels for roofs replace traditional roofing materials? Is BIPV better than rooftop solar? Is BIPV suitable for old buildings? Can BIPV withstand hail storms? INVITAIC will show you the fact.

From Add-On to Built-In: Solving Traditional Roofing Risks

Traditional solar (BAPV) adds panels on top of roofs. BIPV (Building-Integrated Photovoltaics) is different – it fuses solar power into the structure itself. These BIPV panels for roofs become part of your building, acting as both weather protection and clean energy generators (replacing roofs, walls, windows, or facades).

Why it Beats Old-School Roofing

  • Dual Power + ProtectionNo extra frames or drilling. Unlike asphalt shingles or metal sheets, BIPV panels for roofs generate clean energy while shielding your home. As your roof’s built-in surface, they resist storms and eliminate leaks – no weak points, just built-in power.
  • BIPV Costs25+ year solution: Outlasts traditional roofs, avoiding costly replacements. Traditional roofs last 10-15 years (replacement costs pile up). INVITAIC’s 25-year BIPV solution slashes electricity bills and outlives competitors.
  • Energy-Saving RoofMakes power while protecting you. Engineered as structural building layers, they resist rain, winds and extreme weather – no fragile add-ons.

INVITAIC’s BIPV panels for roofs deliver excellent impact durability that handles extreme weather – no weak points. And also with all-weather durability and heavy snow load resistance (tested to 5400 Pa), this BIPV roofing system outperforms traditional materials in every climate.

These custom solar roof solutions offer tailored solar integration for any building, featuring low-light solar panels that generate power even on cloudy days. Upgrade to INVITAIC’s energy-generating roofs that protect and power your home.
