Our research compared a “Biosolar” green roof - one that combines a solar system with a green roof - and a comparable conventional roof with an equivalent solar system.
These results show we don’t have to choose between a green roof or a solar roof: we can combine the two and reap double the rewards.
The biosolar green roof and conventional roof had the same area, about 1860 square metres, with roughly a third covered by solar panels.
The green roof reduced surface temperatures by up to 9.63℃ for the solar panels and 6.93℃ for the roof surfaces.
This was the article I read a while ago: https://www.uts.edu.au/news/tech-design/green-roof-or-solar-both-best which had me interested (plus I’m generally interested in architecture). Otherwise, at this stage, I’m just searching up videos on how you would install a green roof - moreso just out of curiosity 😊
That was my curiosity also.
I saw this grass fit article as well - https://www.architectureanddesign.com.au/suppliers/junglefy/junglefy-rolls-out-green-roof-for-new-orange-regio
