5 energy efficient roof types
Metal roof
Metal roofing is one of the most energy-efficient options on the market. It reflects solar radiant heat rather than absorbing it, which can reduce cooling costs by 10–25%. Many metal roofs also come with reflective coatings for enhanced performance. They’re lightweight, durable, and 100% recyclable.
Tile roofing
Clay and concrete tiles are naturally insulating, keeping buildings cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Their curved shapes allow for air circulation under the surface, which helps regulate interior temperatures. They’re also highly durable and long-lasting.
Asphalt roof
While traditional asphalt shingles aren’t the most energy-efficient, newer “cool roof” asphalt shingles are designed with reflective granules that help reduce heat absorption. They’re a cost-effective option that combines decent performance with wide availability.
Slate shingles
Slate is a premium natural material that offers exceptional insulation properties. It reflects heat and provides excellent temperature regulation. Slate roofs are extremely durable and can last over 100 years with proper care, making them a sustainable choice despite the higher upfront cost.
Green roofs
Also known as living roofs, green roofs are covered with vegetation that naturally insulates the building and reduces the urban heat island effect. They help manage stormwater, improve air quality, and offer unmatched environmental benefits. Ideal for flat or low-slope roofs in urban settings.
