Sustainable power generation from the roof

On the roofs of our farm buildings at Gut Feichten – Staudham we have been generating clean solar power for some time – without using any additional land.

By installing modern photovoltaic systems on existing buildings, we make the best use of our infrastructure. No farmland has to be sacrificed, which protects both the landscape and agricultural use.

The electricity generated is used on site or fed into the grid and makes an important contribution to the energy transition. At the same time, it significantly improves the carbon footprint of our farm.

In addition, a battery storage system ensures that the energy generated is not wasted and does not further burden the grid: surplus solar power is stored and is available exactly when it is needed – in the evening, for example, or when there is little sunshine.

Combining photovoltaics with battery storage has many advantages: it increases the share of self-consumed electricity, reduces dependence on the grid and improves security of supply. It also contributes to grid stability and allows even more efficient and sustainable use of renewable energy on our farm.
