The new Highway Police Headquarters in Chur, designed by Comamala Ismail Architects, is Switzerland’s first net-zero energy building, demonstrating advanced solar architecture. A key feature of the design is the integration of building-integrated
Following its recent renovation, building 15 on the parade ground in Aigle will generate around 640,000 kilowatt hours of electricity per year for the DDPS, enough to cover the needs of around 160 Swiss households. The effective integration of photovoltaic modules into the simple and functional design of the vehicle depot has been awarded the solar prize for energy-positive buildings (PEB).

SOLARCHITECTURE is pleased to announce the official launch of the docu-film “Energy and design: building with integrated photovoltaics”, produced by SUPSI – Institute for Sustainability Applied to the Built Environment (ISAAC) – as part of the European Seamless-PV project. The film, produced in partnership with ISPLORA, is available online, in its entirety and divided into thematic episodes
The building’s design adheres to principles of sufficiency, meaning that unnecessary materials and layers were omitted. The technical infrastructure follows a “low-tech” approach, and the parking garage was built without a concrete slab to reduce material
The first day of the course took place at the Fernfachhochschule (FFHS), focusing on the principles and theory and current challenges of building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). Participants were welcomed into an engaging learning environment that combined expert-led presentations
Thanks to building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), architects, engineers and building and construction specialists can now combine aesthetics and sustainability when designing or renovating buildings. In a world where changing energy production sources is a priority, BIPV is
