Roofing manufacturer Russell Roof Tiles has formed a strategic partnership with solar specialist Solfit to support the deployment of roof-integrated solar systems.
With solar PV expected to become standard across new-build housing under upcoming energy efficiency regulations, the partnership brings together Russell Roof Tiles’ expertise with Solfit’s roof-integrated solar platform and managed delivery framework, supporting a more coordinated approach to integrating solar generation within residential developments.
Daniel Hancox, corporate sustainability & development director at Russell Roof Tiles, added: “As solar becomes an increasingly standard feature of new-build housing, closer integration between roofing systems and solar technologies is becoming essential. Housebuilders need solutions that not only support energy generation targets, but also maintain roofing performance, build efficiency and long-term reliability.
“Our partnership with Solfit brings together roofing expertise and integrated solar delivery in a way that supports a more coordinated approach to solar deployment across residential developments.”
