The flat roofs of the 10 buildings on our company premises offer perfect space for more than 1,500 photovoltaic modules. Space that was already used in 2012 for the installation of our first modules. The roof of our newest building, inaugurated in the summer of 2019, was of course also fully equipped with photovoltaic modules right from the start.
By generating our own green electricity, we are already able to produce around 30% of the total electricity required at our Heiligenhaus site ourselves using our solar collectors. In addition to this, solar panels and heat pumps heat the water needed for heating and showering in two of our company buildings.
These measures spare environmental resources by saving, for example, fossil fuels and at the same time reduce CO2 emissions. A photovoltaic system produces more electricity over its lifetime than was needed to make it. Meaning a further contribution to a positive environmental balance.
