Solar Shingles Save on Electricity The Sun Energy Shingle™ from BIPV is designed to integrate with traditional asphalt shingle roofs. These shingles offer all the advantages of solar panels without the inherent problems, such as debris collection that can be a fire hazard or installation holes that are potential sources of leaks down the road. Solar shingles can save on electricity costs immediately and homeowners receive a 30% tax credit from the Federal government. |
