BEHIND OUR SOLAR TILE CONCEPT |
Redwood's Technology Is Unique
Redwood develops, manufactures and markets to distributors high value, high
efficiency residential roofing tiles and matching integrated solar roofing. |
 |
The Integrated Solar Slate
Is unique in that it is designed to accommodate both Crystaline and thin film technology.
Photovoltaic cells are covered with glass or a polymer type film incorporated onto the molded polymer substrate.
The solar tile can be any shape, a slate or an elongated shape. The tiles have a built in ventilation system to
increase energy efficiency by 19% over conventional modules. This results in producing more power in the limited
space on top of a roof. |
 |
Low Profile Electrical Interconnect System
A low cost built in electrical interconnect safe connect system designed to meet UL1703 and NEC standards. |
 |
Non Glass/Metal Frame Encapsulation System
New advanced solar-to-building attachment and application techniques with non-glass crystalline or and then
combined with traditional building and roofing products, forms a new class of solar building products. Breaking away from traditional
glass crystalline module construction, Redwood has developed a non-glass crystalline solar module. |
 |
Proprietary Barrel Reactor Design
Redwood's patented radial convergent sonic de-vulcanization system produces a polymer that is de-vulcanized.
This high level of de-vulcanization is due to Redwood's proprietary barrel reactor design, The process and the resulting products
comply with the Cradle to Cradle Protocol. |

Financial Incentives
Governments in the USA and in EU are now providing 30% to 50% Investment tax credits.
Certain areas offer Renewable Energy Payments. |
