Even when the available surfaces are large and well-exposed, the ability to optimize spaces represents one of the most important requirements for support structures. For this reason, for over ten years, one of Sun Ballast's main objectives has been the development of practical and functional solutions that allow all types of flat surfaces to be useful and productive, from small residential spaces to larger roofs of industrial facilities. In this case, the system installed by our client Saccopower generates up to
28 kWp of clean electricity and was installed in Fiumicino on a membrane-covered roof using the
Vela system 5°: by varying the height of the ballasts and easily modulating the distance between the rows, this solution allows for optimal use of the available surface. Depending on the specific needs of the system, it is indeed possible to reduce or completely eliminate the space between the rows of modules, avoiding shading and ensuring the installation achieves the highest level of
efficiency and productivity. Considering also the considerable size of the panels, to ensure maximum resistance to wind loads, the innovative
No-Flex solution has been integrated: the addition of a central ballast and the special steel bracket allows for an increase in the number of fixing points from 4 to 6, precisely adhering to all the support parameters indicated by the manufacturers, reducing the risk of bending to zero and ensuring a reliable and extremely stable system, even with large-sized modules.
