Greece Solar Roof Tile Renovation Project

Project Overview

GreenMore completed a residential roof renovation in Greece, replacing aging clay tiles with curved solar roof tiles while preserving the home's Mediterranean architectural style. The 10kW solar system is paired with a 15kWh energy storage battery and a GreenMore energy storage inverter, forming a complete solar-plus-storage solution for the household.

The project demonstrates how solar tiles can serve as a direct replacement for conventional roofing — no structural changes needed, no compromise on aesthetics. For distributors and installers working in Mediterranean markets, this is a proven deployment model: remove the old roof, install GreenMore solar tiles, connect the storage system, and commission.

System Configuration

Project Highlights

• Seamless Roof Replacement

Old clay tiles were removed and replaced directly with GreenMore curved solar tiles. The installation uses the same mechanical connections as traditional tiles, so no structural modifications or special mounting hardware were required.

• Mediterranean Aesthetics Preserved

The curved tile profile matches the original Mediterranean roofing style. The homeowner's property maintains its architectural character while now generating clean electricity from the roof.

• Built for Coastal Conditions

Greece's coastal climate brings high UV exposure, salt air, and humidity. GreenMore solar tiles are engineered for these conditions — maintaining stable output with minimal degradation across a 25-year warranty period.

• Solar-Plus-Storage Self-Consumption

The 15kWh GreenMore battery stores daytime solar generation for evening use, significantly improving self-consumption and reducing dependence on the grid. The system is managed through GreenMore's cloud platform for real-time monitoring.

FAQ

Q1: How long did the roof renovation take?

A: The full project — old roof removal, solar tile installation, electrical integration, and system commissioning — was completed in standard roofing timelines. GreenMore tiles install using conventional methods, so no extra construction time is needed.

Q2: Can solar tiles match other Mediterranean roof styles?

A: Yes. GreenMore offers multiple tile profiles including curved, flat, and triple-arch designs. We work with distributors and installers to match regional architectural requirements.

Q3: What happens to the old roof materials?

A: Old clay tiles are removed and disposed of or recycled as part of the renovation process. GreenMore solar tiles then serve as both the new roof and the power generation system in one product.
