Solar Bay Pavilion
Solar Bay Pavilion is where solar technology meets metal roofing and wall systems. You’ll see the newest solar products on display and learn that metal roofing and solar technologies are the perfect energy efficient solution given that a metal roof will outlast the traditional asphalt roof. The unique inherent properties of metal make metal wall systems an excellent platform for solar technologies due to effective energy cost reduction. Solar Bay Pavilion is the only place where experts and product engineers from both industries show you the best methodologies to integrate solar technology into your metal roofing and construction projects.
Solar Bay Live
See just how compatible metal and solar technology really are at Solar Bay Live. Complete with full-scale solar roof mock-ups, this show floor learning center is where you’ll find the newest solar integration technologies for the metal roofing and building envelope. See Rooftop-Mounted Solar Power Systems, Solar Heat Recovery Systems on Roof and Walls, Solar-Thermal Water Heating Technologies and learn about Federal, State and Local Solar Energy Funding Incentives. Solar Bay Live is where world renowned experts from two emerging industries give you the tips, tools and trade secrets on metal and solar technology.
