ArcEdge Showcases Roofit.Solar at the Embassy of Estonia During EU Open House in Washington, D.C.

ArcEdge was honored to be invited to the Embassy of Estonia in Washington, D.C. as part of the EU Open House, where we had the opportunity to showcase Roofit.Solar’s integrated solar metal roofing technology alongside our installer friends at Uprise Solar.

The EU Open House is the European Union Delegation’s flagship public event in Washington, D.C., held each year around Europe Day. The event opens the doors of the EU Delegation and more than 20 European Union member country embassies, allowing visitors to experience European culture, food, music, history, design, and innovation without crossing the Atlantic. The 2026 event is scheduled for Saturday, May 9 from 10 AM to 4 PM, and this year’s theme also celebrates 250 years of shared history, ideas, and achievements between Europe and the United States.  

For ArcEdge, the Embassy of Estonia was a natural fit.

Roofit.Solar was born in Estonia, a country known for forward-thinking technology, clean design, and practical innovation. The product reflects that same mindset: a standing seam-style metal roof that also functions as a solar energy system. Instead of mounting traditional solar panels on top of a roof, Roofit.Solar integrates solar directly into the roofing material itself, creating a sleek architectural finish while generating clean power.

At the event, visitors were able to see and handle Roofit.Solar materials, learn how the system works, and ask questions about how integrated solar roofing can be used on homes, cabins, commercial buildings, and new construction projects across the U.S.

We were joined by Uprise Solar, our installer partners in the Washington, D.C. area, who helped speak with visitors about installation, project planning, and what it takes to bring this type of technology to real buildings in the region.

What made the event especially meaningful was the setting. The Embassy of Estonia’s EU Open House program invited visitors into a historic 120-year-old home on Embassy Row, blending classic American architecture with modern Nordic design. That combination mirrors what we see every day in the solar roofing market: customers want clean energy, but they also care deeply about the look and long-term value of their home or building.  

That is where integrated solar roofing has a powerful role to play.

Solar does not have to feel like an afterthought. It can be part of the architecture. It can replace conventional roofing materials. It can protect the structure, produce energy, and preserve the design intent of the building all at once.

Events like EU Open House are a reminder that innovation often moves across borders through relationships, shared ideas, and trusted local partners. Roofit.Solar may have started in Estonia, but through ArcEdge, Uprise Solar, and other installation partners across the country, this technology is finding its place in the American market.

We are grateful to the Embassy of Estonia for including us, to Uprise Solar for joining us, and to everyone who stopped by to learn more about what the future of solar roofing can look like.

Clean energy can be beautiful.
A roof can be more than a roof.
And sometimes, the future of American buildings starts with an idea from Estonia.
