Viridian Solar’s “eyes remain firmly on the future” as it announces it has been acquired by roofing manufacturer Marley.
It comes after the two first revealed a partnership in 2020 to offer the Marley SolarTile, based on Viridian’s Clearline fusion products.
Now, Marley has acquired 100% of the share capital of Viridian, a move which the solar company said provides the foundation for further growth as it prepares for rapid expansion driven both by changes to building regulations and its expansion into international markets.
The solar firm already has a strong international presence, having set up a subsidiary in the Netherlands in 2019. Its Clearline fusion roof-integrated solar system has now been installed on roofs across the Benelux union, Ireland - which it expanded into last year - Germany, Austria and Scandinavia, with the company having also expanded into the US last year.

Two months after snow, ice, and temperatures as low as -6° F left 4 million Texans without electricity, the fight over how to power the state’s future is just heating up.
In February, the Texas grid came four minutes away from complete collapse. Half of the state’s electricity generating capacity failed. Coal, nuclear, wind, and solar plants left gaping holes in the state’s energy supply, and natural gas left the biggest: 17,000 megawatts. The outage left at least 100 people dead, and $90 billion in damages. It also sparked interest in building more power plants to guard against the next one. Last week, Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Energy subsidiary pitched one of the ambitious proposals yet: Build 10,000 MW of natural gas plants with on-site fuel storage.
