When architecture touches the soul

The radiant connection between heaven and earth can literally be felt at the baptismal font of the Epiphanias Church in Hannover, Germany. The architect expressed his creative sensibilities with the help of “solar painting" – an art form that the Wedel-based photovoltaic specialist solarnova has excelled at for decades.

en Intersolar Award 2015

Munich, June 10, 2015 – solarnova Germany GmbH has won the Intersolar Award 2015 in the category “Projects” with its contribution to the Aktiv-Stadthaus in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The prize has been awarded for the eighth time this year and is held in high esteem throughout the industry. solarnova regards the award as a special acknowledgement of the quality of its long-term core expertise in BIPVs (building-integrated photovoltaics) that are „Made in Germany“.

BIPV - Materials for your Creativity

What are the basic advantages of integrating photovoltaics into buildings? It replaces traditional building materials. This distinguishes them from photovoltaic systems which are installed on existing roofs of buildings. Our BIPV solutions provide various additional features besides power generation, such as sound insulation, protection against the elements and sunshading – all while reducing your air conditioning costs.

Standard PV high-performance modules

Special cells, the PERCs (Passivated Emitter Rear Cell), are processed on high-quality photovoltaic modules on a self-developed automated production line. These solar cells, which are known as particularly powerful, have a mirrored and passivated back. Every single one achieves an output of more than 5 Wp. The special antireflex coating on the front glass of the SOL 308 GT mono also optimizes the performance and thus ensures the highest annual yields. "Quality has been the foundation of our company philosophy since 1996," says solarnova Managing Director Sylvia Schmenk. "Our brand stands for particularly high-quality, robust, long-lasting and high-performance photovoltaics".

Sunshading

Sunshading with space. Elements that automatically adjust to the sun’s position. Sunblinds in different transparencies. Horizontal, vertical, rotatable, movable or static, and much more …

Overhead glazing

Overhead glazing is an attractive element for the architectural interplay of light and shadow. The slope of the roof and freely selectable parameters – such as size and cell arrangement – make light effects possible and hold a fascination of their own.

Balustrades

Balustrades can also generate solar energy, all while highlighting the architectural style, the building’s character and the strong affinity of the inhabitants to their environment and surroundings.
