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.
