In Europe there are many manufactures with PV and green roof solutions. I also like to mention Optigreen AG - probably the larges green roof manufacturer in the world -for sure the most flexible system in each regard. I did my first Green roof- PV project in 1995 Zeppelin Carré Stuttgart.
My company is an American company but I am still involved in projects in Germany or featuring German projects from the past or ongoing. Last Friday I visited the construction of the largest green roof and PV combination project in the world. This 75,000 sft PV Green roof combination is in Stuttgart Germany, will produce energy for 250 four person house holds and -as said still- under construction. However the entire development of this new fair ground as the forth largest PV park in the world mounted on roofs. There are endless green roofs and PVs. With Roof mounted PVs Germany has nearly 20 projects under the largest 30 in the world and has the leadership in the world.
See a 2009 rendering of the Green roof PV project and expect more information.

Whoa, that is indeed pretty large! A small-sized town here in the US can probably benefit from the energy that will produce. That's German technology at its finest. Salute!
