Austrian PV racking expert AEROCOMPACT has launched a rail-based mounting system – CompactFLAT SN 2 – for all common module sizes, including large-area solar modules up to 2.384 m x 1.303 m. The system is an optimized version of its predecessor, CompactFLAT SN, and is equally suitable for mounting framed PV modules on concrete, bitumen, foil and gravel roofs. AEROCOMPACT designed it for solar installations facing south or east/west with a tilt angle of 10°. “More variants of the SN 2 will follow at the end of the year so that we can meet all customer requirements with one system,” says AEROCOMPACT product manager Irene Zemanek. AEROCOMPACT will present the new system from 19 to 22 September at RE+, the largest and most comprehensive event in North America for the clean energy industry.

AEROCOMPACT, the Austrian PV manufacturer for racking solutions, has developed a flat roof system for mounting bifacial PV active modules or solar systems on green roofs. “Bifacial modules are replacing traditional foil modules more and more, especially in the US. The high elevation of our new system improves reflection and ensures higher yields,” explains AEROCOMPACT product manager Philipp Pejcl. Independent laboratory tests have confirmed that bifacial modules can increase yields by up to 20 percent by reflecting light when the roof surface is bright.
