ZinCo Solar Base
Lightweight vertical bifacial system for flat and green roofs.
INTEGRATED
FLEXIBLE ORIENTATION
A penetration-free green roof solar system built around the ZinCo Solar Base SB 200. It supports south-facing, east-west and vertical module arrangements while the green roof build-up provides ballast.

OVERVIEW
ZinCo SolarVert combines photovoltaic modules with an extensive green roof using the Solar Base SB 200 system. The green roof build-up provides resistance against wind uplift without requiring mechanical fixings through the waterproofing.
Different support frames allow the system to accommodate several module orientations and project requirements.
HOW IT WORKS
Solar Base SB 200 units are incorporated across the green roof drainage layer and connected to project-specific mounting frames. The substrate provides ballast while the raised structure maintains access to light, water and vegetation.
KEY BENEFITS
No roof penetration
Green roof acts as ballast
Multiple module orientations
Module angles from 5° to 45°
Water storage beneath arrays
Compatible fall-protection options
