Clearline fusion is the only roof-integrated solar system with independent, third-party accreditation that it meets new NHBC Technical Requirements for durability, issued in 2024. Its British Board of Agrement certificate applies to the entire system and gives housebuilders a simple, clear route to demonstrating to NHBC inspectors that a compliant product has been used.
The in roof system doesn''t need roof tiles under it, and thus overall, it comes out cheaper. The Viridian system is just under £200 per kWp more expensive than the GSE system. The GB-Sol complete solar roof system is more expensive. Depending on the finer design points, the price can approach £3,000 per kWp.

Solar panels, or photovoltaics (PV), capture the sun''s energy and convert it into electricity to use in your home. East or west facing roofs still work, but we don''t recommend installing solar panels on a north facing roof. A system facing east or west tends to get around 15-20% less energy than one facing directly south.

A rooftop solar power system, or rooftop PV system, is a photovoltaic (PV) system that has its electricity -generating solar panels mounted on the rooftop of a residential or commercial building or structure.
Most rooftop PV stations are Grid-connected photovoltaic power systems. Rooftop PV systems on residential buildings typically feature a capacity of about 5–20 kilowatts (kW), while those mounted on commercial buildings often reach 100 kilowatts to 1 megawatt (MW). Very large roofs can house industrial scale PV systems in the range of 1–10 MW.
In roof solar PV, also called 'roof-integrated solar' the solar arrays are installed flush with the roof finish. Installed before the roof covering is applied, in-roof systems are suitable for new builds, but can be installed on an existing roof as part of a re-roofing project.
Solar PV systems for flat roofs can be divided into two types: Flat roof mounted solar PV systems can be mounted on the roof structure via fixings which penetrate the waterproofing. The PV array is installed onto a rail system with hard point fixings into the structure, through the waterproofing layer.
Flat roofs are a particularly useful site for solar PV. However, it is important to be aware that even ballasted systems involve some penetrations and therefore it is wise to ensure the system is designed, installed and maintained correctly to avoid invalidating your roofing warranty.
How Rooftop Solar Systems Work At the heart of a rooftop solar system are solar panels, which are designed to capture sunlight and convert it into electricity. These panels consist of photovoltaic cells, typically made of silicon, which generate a flow of electricity when exposed to sunlight.
