SANYO Canada Inc. and AVACOS Solar Energy,
a Canadian solar photovoltaic installation and project integration
company, have completed a 10 kW photovoltaic system combining SANYO's
HIT (Heterojunction with Intrinsic Thin-layer) Double bifacial PV
modules and DuROCK Tio-Coat reflective roof membrane at DuROCK Alfacing
International Ltd.'s headquarters in Woodbridge, Ontario.
According
to the companies, SANYO HIT Double PV modules generate power from both
sides, resulting in up to 30% higher energy output than standard
single-sided PV modules. DuROCK's Tio-Coat is a high-strength white
elastomeric urethane roof coating that provides 89% solar radiation
reflectivity and weather resistance, reducing the energy usage required
for the building compared to traditional roof coverings, the companies
add.
