EnerGen^™ Photovoltaic Roofing System

System Benefits

Your personal power plant, designed as a roof.

EnerGen comes in a pre-engineered kit that contains all the elements necessary for rapid rooftop installation.

CertainTeed's EnerGen^™ Photovoltaic Roofing System is a thin-film laminate that lies flush with traditional roofing shingles, and produces energy for a longer portion of the day than the crystalline panels you're used to. And it's easier to install.

• Structurally integrated for a sleek and seamless look
• Produces energy longer, even in low light or partial shade
• Requires no roof penetrations
• Flexible enough to fit a multitude of roofing configurations
• Lightweight, no need for structural reinforcement or evaluation
• Durable and resistant to wind uplift
• 110 mph wind warranty

The EnerGen system will generate a portion or, in some cases, all or more electricity than your home uses during the day. Your home will only pull electricity through your electric meter when you need more than your roof collects.

If you don't use all the electricity your roof makes, the excess power flows back through your meter into the power grid. And your electric bill goes down even further as a result.

Optimum Performance

Find Your Place in the Sun

Solar panels perform at peak efficiency when certain factors work in your favor. While all solar collectors perform at their best on clear, sunny days when sun exposure is at its peak, our panels are designed to work longer and harder, making the most out of any sunlight conditions, from dawn to dusk. For best results...

1. Face South
   This is the optimum position for solar panels, but southeast and southwest facing arrays can produce decent results
2. Catch the Latitude Attitude
   Homes in lower latitudes get better sun saturation. CertainTeed solar technology broadens the range
3. Get Out of the Shade
   Position solar panels where no shade will fall on them (from trees, buildings, chimneys, etc)
4. The Best Rays are Middays
   When the sun is at its highest, solar panels run at optimum levels. CertainTeed solar technology extends this window
5. Be Weather Aware
   The more sun, the better
6. Get Seasoned Advice
   The sun is higher in the sky in summer compared to winter and a steeper roof is better in winter than in summer. Find a balance for your change in seasons
