Spanish installer Grupo OPDE has signed a cooperative agreement with ArcelorMittal Construcción España, the Spanish branch of the multinational iron and steel company, which will see the companies collaborate on the development of the PV rooftop installation market. Targeting industrial buildings and car parks, the companies will incorporate ArcelorMittal’s solutions for rooftop installations in industrial buildings, canopies and fixed structures.

In order to facilitate this development, Proinso, part of the Grupo OPDE, will share its network of 1,272 qualified installers in 48 countries with ArcelorMittal. Any turnkey project contracts won by ArcelorMittal will be developed by OPDE, while ArcelorMittal will offer its customers the option to rent their rooftops to OPDE with the aim of using the space as a rooftop PV installation.
