2024 . 10 . 25

We are happy to announce that Over Easy Solar is partnering with Sempergreen, Europe’s leading provider of green roofing systems and materials. This collaboration marks an important step in our mission to enable solar energy and biodiversity on roofs by combining innovative solar technologies with Sempergreen's world-renowned green roof systems. Sempergreen will be a distributor of Over Easy Solar’s VPV Unit for green solar roofs, making it available for the entire European continent.

Sempergreen: Pioneers in Green Roofing and Sustainable Solutions

With more than 25 years of experience, Sempergreen is a leader in converting urban landscapes and rooftops into green spaces. With a strong global presence, supported by sedum and plant nurseries on five continents, they specialize in innovative solutions such as vertical gardens and green roofs. Sempergreen’s dedication to sustainability drives their ongoing efforts to improve urban biodiversity, reduce heat islands, and manage rainwater, ensuring that cities become more resilient and environmentally friendly. As the Founder and Chairman of the Board, Corné van Garderen, explains:

“At Sempergreen, our mission has always been to bring nature back into urban environments, creating healthier, more sustainable cities. Partnering with Over Easy Solar allows us to take this mission to the next level by seamlessly integrating renewable energy with our green roof systems.”  - Corne van Garderen, Sempergreen

Bringing Green Roof Solutions with Solar to Market

By partnering with Sempergreen, Over Easy Solar is excited to push towards solar integration on green roofs, also called “biosolar” solutions. Our solution is specifically designed to harmonize with green roofs. The vertical PV units avoid conflicts between plants and solar panels, and users enjoy seamless access to their green roofs without compromising energy production. Additionally, the VPV system eliminates the need for intrusive fasteners or heavy ballast, and with only 11kg per sqm of added weight to the green roof, it’s the most lightweight solution on the market. The freestanding system also reduces the risk of leaks and wear, and the plug-and-play installation technique simplifies the planning, installation, and commissioning processes by up to 90%. As the Founder and CEO of Over Easy Solar explains,

“This partnership will contribute to a more sustainable future by maximizing the potential of urban roofs. Together, Over Easy Solar and Sempergreen provide the materials for future-proof and double sustainability roofs that fits both existing and new buildings.” – Trygve Mongstad, Over Easy Solar
