Abstract:
An improved photovoltaic roofing system () includes a roofing membrane () overlying a top surface () of a roof deck (), an insulation layer () above the roofing membrane () and a photovoltaic panel () above the insulation layer (). The improved photovoltaic insulation layer () component defines a predetermined number of drainage channels () between the insulation layer () and the roofing membrane, and/or a predetermined insulation layer thickness, and the predetermined number of drainage channels () and/or thickness is a function of variable drainage requirements and/or variable insulation requirements of the roofing system (). A photovoltaic IRMA roofing system () replaces traditional IRMA roofing system () ballast materials () with a combined weight of concrete topped () insulation layer and photovoltaic panels () to meet a predetermined minimum weight per unit area requirement of a specific roofing system ().
