Uni-Solar’s shingles and standing seam roofing panels are installed much like conventional roofing products, yet they incorporate triple-junction amorphous silicon thin-film PVs to generate electricity.

They also offer the PowerTilt PV system that uses thin-film PVs on an angled lightweight mounting system.
