Solar energy from Swiss rooftops

There are around 9.6 million buildings in Switzerland. Over half of their rooftops are suitable for solar plants according to a study by the ETH Lausanne. They could generate about 24 terawatt-hours (TWh) of solar power, which is ten times more than today''s production.

What if half of Switzerland''s rooftops produced electricity?

Researchers at EPFL are assessing Switzerland''s solar power potential. Their results show that photovoltaic panels could be installed on more than half of the country''s 9.6 million rooftops. The resulting power would meet more than 40% of Swiss electricity demand.

Summary of rooftop solar analysis

The NPV of installing solar panels is highly sensitive to the total annual consumption and the electricity price (buy). The higher both parameters the higher the NPV. For high combinations of both parameters, a battery is adding value – even at today''s market prices.

The first photovoltaic installation in Switzerland dates back to 1992, but the country had to wait 2011 to observe a significant growth of the size of the yearly installed capacities, it has been developing at a rapid pace ever since (section 1.2).

The impact of on‑site rooftop solar PV on logistics property

Our view is that early adopters stand to benefit the most in the long-term from renewable energy sources across property portfolios. The findings presented in this report indicate that there is a 4.2% uplift in the value of logistics property after the introduction of

Quantifying rooftop photovoltaic solar energy potential: A

Using a combination of machine learning (support vector regression) and geographic information systems (GIS) we have estimated the technical potential, that is, rooftop solar PV electricity production, focusing on the urban areas at the commune level (the smallest

Five million rooftops in Switzerland – more than half of the nationwide total – are suitable for generating power. A review of two solar photovoltaic development strategies has shown that combining the two

Energy Strategy 2050: the potential of millions of Swiss rooftops

Five million rooftops in Switzerland – more than half of the nationwide total – are suitable for generating power. A review of two solar photovoltaic development strategies has shown that combining the two approaches could cause over two-thirds of Swiss towns and cities to become energy self-sufficient.
