2.27 MWp Membrane Flat-Roof PV Plant in Kocaeli on ISOBEAM IMC
The plant across the factory roofs, aerial view
In brief
In 2022 ISOTEC prepared and shipped the ISOBEAM IMC mounting system for a 2.27 MWp rooftop solar plant on the membrane-covered flat roofs of a factory in Çayırova, Kocaeli. The 5,036 modules of 450 Wp sit on ISOBEAM 60-N rails fixed to the roof membrane with IMC mounts; the roof pitch is 1° and the building is 18 m high.
The project
5,036 modules on a large factory roof
The plant covers the flat, membrane-covered roofs of a factory in an organised industrial zone in Çayırova. The building is 18 m high and the roof pitch is only 1°. In the aerial shots the long roof of the main production hall and the roof of the front hall are full of module rows, with the areas around skylights and service outlets left clear.
The ISOBEAM IMC system fixes the modules to a membrane roof through IMC mounts: the rails sit on top of these mounts; the ISOBEAM 60-N profile was used. On this project the 450 Wp modules, measuring 2,094 × 1,038 mm, are mounted in portrait on the rails with EasyClamp clamps. In the installation photos the IMC mounts can be seen in rows beneath the rails; the April–May 2022 shots show the roof under installation and the September 2022 shots show the finished plant.
ISOTEC prepared a project-specific structural report for this roof, based on a ground snow load of 0.75 kN/m² and a wind pressure of 0.80 kN/m²; the total dead load of the system including the modules is 12.05 kg/m². The report also covered the load check of the existing roof purlins and was reviewed and approved by the civil engineering department of a university. ISOTEC also supplied systems for a second phase of about 3.6 MWp on the same plot in 2023; the photos and the 2.27 MWp capacity on this page cover the first phase only.

FAQ
Which mounting system was used at this plant?
ISOTEC's ISOBEAM IMC system for membrane roofs. The 5,036 modules stand in portrait on ISOBEAM 60-N rails fixed with IMC mounts.
How were the modules fixed to the roof?
The rails are fixed to the membrane roof through IMC mounts; the modules are clamped to the rails with EasyClamp clamps.
Which loads was the structure designed for?
The project-specific structural report is based on a ground snow load of 0.75 kN/m² and a wind pressure of 0.80 kN/m², and it also checked the existing roof purlins.
How many modules does the plant have?
It has 5,036 modules of 450 Wp, for a total of 2.27 MWp (about 2,266 kWp).
