For those that like clay tile roofs, this looks like an interesting PV product.

One of the architects we work with is going to use this on one of his residential projects.

I've always thought that permanently coupling your roofing to your solar panels was a bad idea. If either function fails (waterproofing your house vs. supplying electrical energy), they both have to be removed/repaired since they are now one in the same. My favorite solution to roof mounted PV, is to clamp the panels to a standing seam roof. Even thought the commercially available clamps (S5! by unirac) are overpriced, they work well. That's what I used.

They are very nice looking but that is a good point on how would one deal with potential problems.  I looked at the website hoping to see what the cost per watt was as well as the size of the module (if it was per individual tile or a series of tiles tied together) but there was no information of that type.

In any case thanks for the post.  They do look nice in the photos and make for a lot cleaner installation appearance wise.
