Gamplüt, 1'350 m

Gamplüt, 1'350 m
Happy Wednesday Wall !

Gamplüt on 1'350 m is a mountain railway station with a restaurant in the eastern part of Switzerland that is completely self-sufficient, powered by wind and solar energy.
The solar panels were also mounted on the facade. This has the great advantage that the angle of incidence of the sun is optimal in winter and that the panels are not covered by snow.
Facade panels have a bright future in the production of electrical energy!

Gudrun, ja, das ist gerade in Altstädten immer wieder ein Problem. Aber es gäbe noch genug Flächen, wo man das anwenden könnte. Gerade bei Gebäudesanierungen.

Ja, bei uns haben welche etwas entwickelt, um Solarzellen auf dem sog. Stuttgarter Dach de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuttgarter_Dach anzubringen (ist wegen der Statik nicht einfach), aber die Stadt legt sich quer....

polytropos club has replied to Gudrun club
Ja, das ist besonders darum recht ärgerlich, weil das Stuttgarter Dach eigentlich nicht als besonders schön gilt.

Herb, the "glass" are photovoltaic panels. The entire house is self-sufficient and is powered solely by the wind turbine and solar energy.
Thanks a lot for your visit!

Roger, thanks a lot! Well, photographically speaking, it's not an extraordinary shot. I was mainly concerned with the nature of the wall and the wonders it can work. :-)

Peter, vielen Dank!
Nun, das Bild ist jetzt nicht ein photografisches Meisterwerk; mir ging es vor allem um die Information über die Möglichkeiten der elektrischen Stromerzeugung. :-)
