Thursday, November 6, 2025 9:15 AM to 10:15 AM · 1 hr. (US/Pacific)

Information

Solar energy is now cost competitive and rooftop energy generation is becoming more mainstream. As owners shift towards a net-zero approach to portfolio management, rooftop real estate is primed for solar panels. This presentation is geared towards owners considering the benefits of solar arrays and the designers guiding owners through this process. Understanding the long-term trends that make rooftop solar a compelling choice is the first step. Considerations to maximize output will be discussed, and approaches to various solar installations will be evaluated to assist with the design process. This will include how rooftop solar can support the path to net zero. Finally, roofing considerations to assist in the long-term performance of the roof assembly will be discussed.
