During renovation of the former federal grain warehouse in the Swiss capital, Berne, 2000 m2 of solar slates were used to reconstruct the gigantic roof.
The new rooftop incorporates 16 650 of Atlantis Solar Systems' Sunslates, which have PV cells embedded in the slate material. The plant, which is owned and operated by Swissun Ltd., has a rated output of 200 kWp. This will provide some 167 000 kWh of electric power annually for the Green Power customers of the City of Berne's electricity works EWB.
