In this multi-family house in Buochs (NW), matt brown photovoltaic modules are integrated into the façade of the building and, in combination with the wood cladding, result in an example of the state-of-the-art architecture. With another PV system on the flat roof, the owner provides enough electricity for all three apartments.

Design

It's barely recognisable at first glance, but the façade of this modern apartment building produces electricity. In the façade and on the balconies, matt brown photovoltaic modules are integrated over a total area of 44 m2 and deliver the power output of 14 kWp.

Result

The façade modules from Intelligent Solar are installed around the entire building and, in combination with the roof system, ensure the generation of electricity whenever there is sunshine and the weather is nice. This results in a total area of 159 m2, which is used for the generation of electricity in this detached house. The building has a total power output of 41 kWp.
