For Metal Building Owners, there are not a lot of Building Options that offer a return on investment and provide essential services
SRM’s can provide up to 100% of power for a building’s commercial High bay lighting fixtures and outdoor lighting fixtures.
For a building owner, Solar Roof Modules (SRM’s) offer a return on investment in about 6-8 years and provide continued savings for the 25 year life of the system.
SRM’s with LED Lighting can provide back-up and emergency lighting as well as operational lighting during power outages.
SRM’s are assembled to order in our North Carolina facility

What is a SRM (Solar Roof Module)?
Each 5’ or 10’ SRM unit is a complete Solar/Battery and power control system that can provide power for 1-2 interior/exterior lighting fixture(s) up to 300 watts per SRM.
We take a 5’ or 10’ PBR metal roof panel from the metal Building Manufacturer and build onto it our Solar Roof module components to make it out of the box ready to install onto a new or existing metal building roof.
SRM’s are installed exactly like a Skylite or a standard metal roof panel during building erection, no special training or equipment needed.
The SRM provides 120V AC power output for the lighting fixture(s) which can be hardwired or simply plugged into the SRM’s 120V power output socket.
Note: SRM’s can provide power to other ceiling or suspension mounted devices such as Security Camera’s, Fans, etc.
What Are The Benefits of SRM’s
On A Metal Building?
01. An SRM consists of a Solar Panel, battery, 120VAC inverter and Power Control system that is factory assembled into a PBR Metal Roof panel to provide power to a Light fixture or connected device.
02. SRM’s Install exactly like a Skylight by the metal building erection crew. It is out of the box ready, no wiring required. The SRM saves the cost of installation with specialized crews and equipment. Even comes with built in lift handles.
03. Can save up to 100% of the daily power usage and cost for a Lighting fixture or connected device.
04. The SRM is a Off Grid hybrid power system, it is designed to be connected to mains power (but does not have to be). It will use the Solar-battery power when available and switch automatically to use mains line power if the battery power is low. With Hybrid power the lights always turn ON when needed.
05. It is designed to run up to 10-14 hours a day or more on solar/battery power and then uses mains power only if needed.
06. Savings from Power, maintenance and service can payback the cost of the system in as little as 6-8 years, then annual savings continue for the life of the system.
07. As a renewable energy system, the SRM units can qualify for US Federal, State and local rebates and tax incentives that can pay for 30% or more of the system cost.
08. No Grid Tie/Feedback permits needed. SRM’s are Off Grid stand alone systems and do not feedback power into the mains power grid. This solves a big issue with solar installations in many areas.
09. SRM’s are placed on the roof near where interior/exterior lighting, fans, etc. are located which does not add a large collateral load to the building roof. Existing metal buildings roofs are typically not designed to support the added collateral load for large solar panel installations. SRM’s offer a good solar solution for existing metal building roofs.
