Roper Roofing & Solar, a roofing contractor serving Denver, CO and neighboring areas, that provides installation of GAF’s Timberline Solar Shingles, has recently released a blog post that explains the three main issues of solar energy generation. These are excess material disposal, existing grid technologies, and oversupply. First of all, recycling the raw materials used for solar panels is still slow while the use of solar panels has been on the rise in households. This means disposal of aging solar panels is an issue and utilizing virgin materials for the solar panels can cause the prices of solar panels to rise temporarily in certain areas.
The second issue is that many energy utilities don’t have yet the appropriate infrastructure to handle massive solar energy production on their grids. The problem with the electricity industries is that they have not been built while considering the possibility of storing energy. Once electric power is produced, it is transmitted to the grid, where it will travel through the power lines to meet the demand for power. If too much power is being generated, the energy will just be wasted. But if the demand is higher than the supply, there will be brownouts. Thus, it is important to have the proper balance between energy consumption and energy production. And lastly, the rise in demand for solar panels means there is a risk of having an oversupply of solar panels, which can affect the sustainability and dependability of the solar panel industry.
Meanwhile, in another recent Roper Roofing & Solar blog post, they discussed the advantages of solar shingles over solar panels. GAF has developed innovative solar energy-gathering asphalt shingles that only require a professional roofer, instead of a solar panel specialist, to have them properly installed. Thus, this has led to a lot of discussions regarding GAF’s Timberline Solar Shingles. The Roper Roofing & Solar professionals, therefore, believe that solar shingles deserve a market. While solar panels are effective but significantly impact the curb appeal of a property, solar shingles aren’t yet a 100 percent imitation of roofing materials that composite shingles have and it is possible that they can become more attractive and effective roofing materials in the future.
By using solar shingles, roofers won’t need to go through additional sessions for licensing. The Timberline Solar Shingles provide the best solution by prioritizing ease of installation, efficiency, and functionality. Many of GAF's MasterElite roofers are able to transition easily into Timberline Solar Shingle installations as a result of this simple installation feature. The use of Timberline Solar Shingles can also help to provide solutions for the previously mentioned issues with solar energy generation.
