Solar energy: The solar potential of all roofs in Switzerland

The interactive application sonnendach shows users anywhere in Switzerland how well suited their building is for producing energy. sonnendach was set up as part of the Swiss government''s Energy Strategy 2050, as a joint project between the Federal Office of Energy, the Federal Office of Meteorology and Climatology (MeteoSwiss) and the

Renewable Energy

Hydroelectric power has been Switzerland''s greatest source of renewable energy for decades, used above all to produce electricity. ''New'' sources of renewable energy such as ambient heating, biomass, wind and especially solar energy have seen a significant boom in recent years thanks to scaled-up measures to promote their use.

Solar power in Switzerland has demonstrated consistent capacity growth since the early 2010s, influenced by government subsidy mechanisms such as the implementation of the feed-in tariff in 2009 and the enactment of the revised Energy Act in 2018. By the end of 2023, solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity had reached 6.4 GW, a notable increase from the 0.1 GW recorded in 2010. Conc

Solar energy

Solar power has enormous potential: by 2050, more than 40 percent of future electricity demand is expected to be met by photovoltaics. The utilisation of solar heat with the aid of a solar thermal system is also an attractive option for producing hot water and auxiliary heating.

The Role of Solar in Switzerland''s Energy Transition

significance of solar thermal energy in Switzerland for the next 30 years. Based on the energy system model, "Swiss Energyscope" of ETH, domestic hot water preheating, geothermal probe/ice storage regeneration, and solar district heating achieve a techno-economic potential of 5 - 10 TWh/a or 2 - 4 % of the overall energy consumption.
