Solyndra is demonstrating the 200 Series rooftop solar systems at the International Roofing Expo in Las Vegas, in booth 668. Solyndra 200 Series systems protect and even enhance a roofing system. Solyndra panels work over and around obstacles, offer easy visibility and access to a roof. The low distributed load typically allows installation of Solyndra panels without structural reinforcement, and Solyndra panels work on roofs where many others cannot, whether because of weight, orientation or wind restrictions. The unique cylindrical design avoids wind resistance and dynamic structural loading while offering superior performance with soiling, snow and wind conditions.
