Lumina Slate Series

High Output on a Small Footprint: The homeowner of this premium classic brick villa had high energy demands but a very limited usable roof area of exactly 100 sq.m. Traditional rack-mounted solar panels (BAPV) require maintenance walkways and edge clearances, meaning they could only generate a fraction of the required 11kW goal on such a small roof.
Matching the Classic Brick Aesthetic: The client also wanted to preserve the timeless look of their red brick property, refusing any bulky, industrial-looking solar add-ons.

High-Density Edge-to-Edge Power: We deployed the Lumina Slate (Pro) series to achieve the impossible. Because our BIPV system acts as the actual roof, we were able to install the power-generating tiles edge-to-edge across the entire 100 sq.m surface. This maximized the space and successfully delivered a massive 11kW system capacity.
Classic Contrast: The deep, matte black of the solar slates creates a stunning, premium contrast with the traditional red brick walls. Beneath the sleek surface, robust insulation and waterproofing layers ensure long-term durability. The system now silently produces 12,000 kWh annually.

Project Log

“A small roof shouldn’t mean small power. By utilizing edge-to-edge BIPV technology, we turned a compact 100 sq.m roof into an 11kW powerhouse, proving that you can maximize energy output without ruining classic brick architecture.” — Sunlit Engineering Team
