What is a photovoltaic robustness certificate?
He photovoltaic soundness certificate is a technical report that verifies the structural capacity of a roof or covering to support the installation of solar panels. It is mandatory in most industrial and commercial installations, since regulations require that any existing structure be able to support:
- He self-weight of the solar panels and the support structure.
- The wind loads, especially in exposed areas.
- The snow loads, depending on the geographic location.
- Possible vibrations or impacts resulting from maintenance.
The certificate is a technical document signed by a engineer either architect, and is key to obtaining permits, subsidies or connection to the network.
When is a photovoltaic robustness certificate required?
If you are installing a solar system on a existing cover, you will most likely need this certificate. It is mandatory in the following cases:
- Photovoltaic installations in industrial buildings or logistics centers.
- Solar self-consumption systems in commercial buildings.
- Projects eligible for subsidies or public aid.
- Facilities that require municipal licenses.
- Projects that connect the photovoltaic installation to the electrical grid.

What does a photovoltaic soundness certificate include?
Photovoltaic robustness certificate
To be valid and comply with current regulations, the photovoltaic soundness certificate must contain:
- Property and photovoltaic installation data.
- Description of the roof or covering, with materials and age.
- Calculation of static and dynamic loads.
- Checking structural resistance to wind, snow and dead weight.
- Conclusions signed by a qualified technician (engineer or architect).
In EngineIn addition to issuing the certificate, we analyze every detail of your roof to ensure that your photovoltaic installation is completely safe and efficient.
In EngineWe offer a complete service to ensure that your photovoltaic installation meets all technical and legal requirements. Our team of specialized engineers is responsible for:
- Inspect the deck or roof to identify its structural characteristics.
- Perform the structural calculation, analyzing existing and future loads.
- Issue the photovoltaic soundness certificate, signed by a competent technician.
- Integrate the certificate into the complete technical project of your solar installation.
- Advise you during the process of request for permits and legalization of the installation.
With Engine, you not only get the certificate, but a comprehensive service of photovoltaic projects, ensuring that your solar system is efficient, safe and complies with all applicable regulations
