AUO has teamed with Cornerstone Building Brands, a leading U.S. metal building manufacturer, to develop and launch SunSteel – an advantageous new integrated solar roof system. SunSteel combines high-efficiency photovoltaic technology and Cornerstone’s proven Double-Lok™ standing-seam metal roof, creating a single, unified product. The system is UL-listed and pre-assembled in a factory, to help ensure consistent build quality, streamlined logistics, and a clean, professional aesthetic.

Product Highlights
• Seamlessly integrates with a premium standing-seam metal roof system.
• Combines solar and roofing into one streamlined and simplified project.
• UL listed and factory-pre-assembled for consistent quality and sleek aesthetics.
• May qualify for additional tax credits and cash-flow positive project financing.

Features
  • Building integrated PV for optimized and streamlined projects

    Building integrated PV for optimized and streamlined projects

    SunSteel is incorporated into the initial design of a new building or roof, allowing for optimization of a building’s structural load requirements. Additionally, by combining the roof and solar installation into one project, timelines are significantly reduced.

  • Simple product installation with fewer parts and better quality

    Simple product installation with fewer parts and better quality

    Factory pre-assembly of SunSteel results in a higher quality solar project, with fewer parts to install and maintain and fewer opportunities for errors and omissions.

  • Increased aesthetics and building performance

    Increased aesthetics and building performance

    SunSteel is a low-profile system that integrates into the roof for a premium appearance. The design of SunSteel allows air space underneath the solar modules to increase energy yield while also keeping the roof cool.
