Looks like an insert with a thickness similar to a concrete 'marley' tile.

I recently installed a Nulok system which looks thinner than these - https://nulokroofing.com/uk/solar-inserts/ - more the thickness of a slate.

The Nulok 1200mm x 400mm (visible 1200 x 300mm) is either 60W or 66W so the Tyle is higher efficiency. However, Nulok will supply you materials only so you can fix it yourself (as we did).
