Wind loads on solar energy systems are not covered by current wind loading standards. This paper describes results of a parametric study into the wind loads on solar energy systems, which are placed on flat roofs. Wind tunnel measurements have been carried out on a number of configurations. The results have been applied into the first prestandard for integration of solar energy in buildings, the Dutch prestandard NVN 7250, and in BRE digest 489.
