The city of Stockholm is installing SolTech’s semi-transparent solar cells as a roof on a listed building.

SolTech Energy has sold a solar energy installation, consisting of SolTech ST (semi-transparent) panels covering an area of 70 m[2], to Nordin’s Glas och Metall AB for installation on a listed building in Stockholm’s Slakthus (Slaughter-house) area that is owned by the city. The value of the order is a firm 300,000 SEK (31,580 EUR ) and the instillation is estimated to produce circa 4,260 kWh annually.

Beginning 2016, SolTech has held an exclusive cooperative agreement contract with Sapa Building Systems AB covering building-integrated solar energy solutions in the Nordic and Baltic regions. One of Sapa’s trademarks is Wicona and this sale represents the first SolTech ST order from a retail seller of Wicona’s products. Existing conditions are optimal as this roof has direct southern exposure. SolTech ST makes possible a glass roof with permanent sun screening that simultaneously produces electricity.

CEO Frederic Telander comments:
“The big value gained here is the establishment of a functioning reference, rather than the monetary worth of the order: This installation visibly demonstrates that a glass roof can produce electricity. Roofs and windows can, with our unique semi-transparent solar cells, also function as sunscreens, which reduces the need to cool the temperature indoors. We foresee a very strong market when architects, technical consultants, construction firms and building owners open their eyes to these facts. This is only the beginning.”
