Solar technology designed into the metal roof.
BIPV puts photovoltaic technology into the building envelope.

BIPV Solar Roof Ontario | Alvinston Integrated Roofing: FAQ
What does BIPV mean for a solar roof in Alvinston?
BIPV means building-integrated photovoltaics—solar technology incorporated into the building surface itself rather than installed only as separate equipment above it.
Can integrated solar be considered during a roof replacement?
Yes. Roof replacement or new construction can be a logical time to compare roof-integrated solar because the roofing and solar scope can be planned together.
Is RARE Ironwood e-Panel™ the same as conventional rack-mounted solar?
No. Ironwood e-Panel™ is designed to integrate with the RARE Ironwood Shake roofing system rather than rely on a separate rack above the finished roof.
