Adley Street, Hackney
At Adley Street in Hackney, the developer was converting two houses into homes in multiple occupation. SolarTyle's supplied project brief identifies increased electricity demand and making use of the available roof space as key priorities.
The integrated solar tile layout was designed to work around the rooflights, including narrow roof sections beside them. The supplied photographs show the roof in the context of the two properties and surrounding London buildings.
Using more of the suitable roof area is a design objective, not a published percentage improvement or a guarantee of annual generation. The final output depends on the system layout and site conditions.

Designing solar around the roof
A useful solar layout starts with the building: its roof shape, orientation, shading and suitable installation area. The electrical design and roof specification then need to work together for the individual project.
