Uni-Solar PVL on a house metal roof in California

Waidy, a member of the SFBay LEAFs Club, has a house with tons of Uni-Solar PVLs on its metal roof, part of a 25kW solar generation !!

- 24 Uni-solar 136W thin film, total of 3.64 kW with yearly production of 4.719 kWh
- 27 Uni-solar 31W thin film, total of 837W with yearly production of 1.210 kWh

Great job !

Just peel and stick, there is a thin layer of very sticky tar under each roll

And on top, some more regular panels ! sitting flat

 

Last week end the SFBay LEAFs Group met at Waidy's and a Japanase TV was interviewing members And that's when I first saw this great Uni-Solar PVL project

And what Waidy says about it conforts me in my Uni-Solar project on our building roof in Paris

Solar Project: Different sizes of Uni-Solar Flexible Solar Panels PVL-31 PVL-68 PVL-124

My solar project is coming soon (I hope) ... Here are the different Uni-Solar flexible solar panels next to each other On the first picture, from left to right, you can see: - 2 PVL-124 (5 meters long, 124W) - 1 PVL-68 (3 meters, 68W) - 1 PVL-31 (1,5 meters, 31W)

Uni-Solar PVL124 flexible solar panels arrived :-)

Few weeks ago I received the 6 flexible solar panels ordered a week before on eBay from the US: Uni-Solar PVL-124 measuring 5 meters in length, 40 cm in width, thickness = 4 mm !! for 174 EUR each shipping included (very good price) 

I will come back and talk about my solar project in a more detailed fashion later on
