Installation Site: Japan  

Scheduled Completion: December 2024  

Generating Capacity: 10KW  

YIJIA SOLAR’s 10KW Solar Ballast Roof Mount Solution redefines urban renewable energy integration in Japan, offering a noninvasive, high efficiency approach to rooftop solar. This project highlights YIJIA SOLAR’s expertise in delivering precision engineered systems tailored to Japan’s seismic and typhoonprone environment while preserving architectural integrity.  

 Project Overview  

The YIJIA SOLAR designed ballast system eliminates roof penetrations, using precision calculated concrete weights to secure solar arrays on flat or low slope roofs. Ideal for Japan’s dense urban centers, the 10KW system generates 12,500+ kWh annually—powering 3 households while offsetting 9.5 tons of CO₂ emissions.  

 Technical Innovations  

1. Zero Penetration Assurance:  

    YIJIA SOLAR’s patented ballast trays distribute 18 kg/m² loads evenly, exceeding Japan’s JIS C 8955 wind uplift standards for typhoon zones (up to 160 km/h gusts).  

    10° tilt optimization balances energy yield (1,250 kWh/KW) with snow/rain runoff efficiency.  

2. Roof Preservation:  

    Anodized aluminum rails (A6063T5) prevent corrosion in coastal regions like Okinawa, ensuring 30year structural durability.  

    Modular design allows rapid disassembly for roof maintenance, minimizing downtime.  

 Strategic Benefits  

 Energy Independence: Reduces grid reliance by 85% for midsized commercial buildings, with 4.2year ROI under Japan’s FIT program (¥16/kWh).  

 Disaster Resilience: Functions as emergency power backup during earthquakes, storing 20 kWh in integrated battery systems.  

 Environmental Leadership  

By displacing 7.8 tons of coal annually, this YIJIA SOLAR powered initiative supports Japan’s 2030 GHG reduction targets while adhering to Tokyo’s strict urban zoning laws. The system’s low profile design (12 cm height) harmonizes with traditional kominka and modern architectural aesthetics.  

YIJIA SOLAR continues to pioneer rooftop solar solutions that marry innovation with cultural preservation, proving that Japan’s renewable future can thrive without compromising its architectural heritage.
