6 FAQs about Large-scale solar power generation system in Switzerland

How much solar power can a Swiss house generate?

According to a recent study by the Swiss Federal Office of Energy (SFOE) based on data from a solar potential cadastre ( sonnendach.ch) and meteodata, Swiss houses and factories could generate up to67 TWh of photovoltaic power per year (current power consumption is around 60 TWh).

Who surveys the solar market in Switzerland?

The Swiss Federal Office of Energy has been surveying the solar market in Switzerland for more than 20 years. Due to this long experience the quality of the data has been maintained, thanks as well to all the installers and distributers who are willing to complete the annual questionnaire.

Will photovoltaics boost renewable power production in Switzerland?

new monitoring report of the “Energy Strategy 2050” in 2019 shows that the increase in renewable power production in Switzerland is on track to reach the 4.4 TWh benchmark for 2020 (see graph above – the value for 2019 is 4.19 TWh).The contribution from photovoltaics is thereby above the long-term scenarios.

What does swissolar do?

On behalf of the Swiss Federal Office of Energy, Swissolar is mandated tosurvey the Swiss solar market and publish the annual installed capacity in the Report: “Le recensement du marché de l'énergie solaire en 2019”.

Is photovoltaics a key pillar of the future Swiss electricity supply?

Electricity production fromphotovoltaics is one of the key pillars in the strategy for the future Swiss electricity supply.

What is the PV potential of a Swiss roof?

The Swiss Federal Office of Energy has announced in September 2018 that the PV potential on Swiss roof wasabout 50 TWh. It represents about 90% of the annual consumption of Switzerland. The evaluation is based on the national maps for PV roof () and on a selection of the most suitable roofs.
