Solar panel installation complete in Granollers / Free Workshop: Building Integrated Photovoltaics, 7 November


 

Installation of 200m² of solar panels on the rooftop of our facility in Granollers has been completed, as part of the EU’s Horizon 2020 program #PVSITES - integrating photovoltaic technology in buildings.


One of the objectives of the European Directive on energy efficiency in buildings is that all new buildings are nZEB - nearly Zero Energy Buildings. The integration of photovoltaic solar technology into building elements (BIPV, Building Integrated Photovoltaics) is crucial to achieve this ambitious goal.
 

Over June and July this year, the rooftop of our Granollers facility was retrofitted with more than 200m² of thin-film CIGS shingles which will produce a peak of 19kWh.
