GAF Energy, a Standard Industries company and North America’s leading provider of solar roofing, announced the launch of its innovative Timberline Solar roof in New Jersey.
Timberline Solar, the only system to directly integrate solar technology into traditional roofing processes and materials, is now available to New Jersey residents for installation by local roofers.
The solar roofing system includes the world’s first nailable solar shingle, the Timberline Solar Energy Shingle (ES), which is manufactured in the United States at GAF Energy’s manufacturing and research and development facility.
“New Jerseyans now have access to the best solar solution for their home—a durable, attractive, affordable solar roof that is manufactured in America and installed by a local roofer they trust,” said Jason Barrett, Senior Vice President of Sales for GAF Energy.
“We’re excited to bring the next generation of clean energy adoption to New Jersey homeowners.”
The Timberline Solar ES has an industry-leading depth of less than a quarter inch and blends in with traditional shingles to create a clean and appealing appearance.
It is the first product to achieve UL’s 7103 certification, which certifies that GAF Energy’s product meets UL’s rigorous electrical, building and safety standards as a roofing product and a solar energy product—the first of its kind to be recognized as both.
Timberline Solar is the world’s most awarded solar shingle. It has won dozens of awards since its debut in January 2022, including those from CES, TIME, Fast Company, Popular Science, Green Builder, Good Housekeeping, and the NAHB.
GAF Energy is expanding its Timberline Solar manufacturing capacity by building a new 450,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Georgetown, Texas, to meet demand.
