An integrated solar roof system, consisting of insulated roofing panels and collector panels, and method of producing same wherein the base assembly of the collector panel may be used with either an air or liquid absorber and is both an insulator and radiation shield as well as an integral structural part of the roof of the building on which it is mounted. The construction of the panels lends itself to mass production techniques and the efficient use of materials making the panels cost effective. The collector panels are also suitable for use as independently mounted units, functioning only as collectors and not as roofing members. Collector panels and insulated roofing panels, being identical in size and installation method, and said installation method being simple and quick, a suitable combination of panels may become a complete roof with minimal installation labor.
