As a result, Solaxess provides a solution for renewable energy integration into the built environment. Developers, architects, and ultimately owners have the possibility to integrate photovoltaic energy perfectly on façades and roofs with white or light-colored active full building elements that are cost effective, durable and aesthetically pleasing. It is compatible with flexible/curved surfaces and can be adapted to any size and shape required by design.

The Environmental Benefits

  • An excellent power output > 100 Wp (Watt-peek) per m2 even for a vivid white and matt active surface.
  • Compatible with most solar technologies.

The Financial Benefits

  • An estimated ROI in 35 years.
