Photovoltaics

The significance of photovoltaics is increasing greatly both nationally and internationally in the context of sustainably organised energy supplies. In Switzerland''s Energy Strategy 2050, the plan is to supply almost half of the electricity required from new, renewable sources, such as photovoltaics. The Photovoltaics research programme

Solar Energy

Solar energy is a form of renewable energy, in which sunlight is turned into electricity, heat, or other forms of energy we can use is a "carbon-free" energy source that, once built, produces none of the greenhouse gas emissions that are driving climate change. Solar is the fastest-growing energy source in the world, adding 270 terawatt-hours of new electricity

More grid stability thanks to energy storage

Photovoltaic plants produce large volumes of electricity during the day, but none at night. These daily fluctuations can be considerable. Flexibility makes it possible to store surplus electricity and to activate additional energy sources as required to keep the grid stable.

6 FAQs about [Swiss energy storage photovoltaic solar energy]

Can solar energy be used in Switzerland?

Although the proportion of solar heat to overall consumption in Switzerland is still relatively low, its potential is considerable. If all existing buildings were to be optimally improved in terms of energy efficiency, it would be possible to meet the heating requirements of all Switzerland's households through the use of solar collectors.

How does Switzerland contribute to the future of electricity storage?

With its hydroelectric power plants in the Alps and innovative projects, Switzerland is contributing to the search for solutions for the efficient, long-term storage of electricity. A journalist from Ticino resident in Bern, I write on scientific and social issues with reports, articles, interviews and analysis.

Is Switzerland able to store energy?

The global challenge is not only to produce more energy from renewable sources, but also to be able to store it. With its hydroelectric power plants in the Alps and innovative projects, Switzerland is contributing to the search for solutions for the efficient, long-term storage of electricity.

What are Switzerland's green electricity targets?

Switzerland’s ambitious green electricity targets are realistic. A study by the SWEET EDGE consortium shows that three distinct strategies would make it possible to cover electricity needs and lead to the employment of several thousands of people in the sector of new renewable energy. Photovoltaics would be the main source of energy for all models.

How does Switzerland generate electricity?

Switzerland already generates most of the electricity it consumes from renewable energies (75%), mainly via hydroelectric power stations. In recent years there has been an increase in photovoltaics, and to a lesser extent in wind power. Solar panels are popping up all over the country, even in the most unthinkable places.

How much energy will Switzerland need in 2035?

It sets a target of 35 TWh/year from new green technologies (solar, wind, wood and biogas) by 2035, compared with the level of around 6 TWh/year in 2022. This target would represent around half of Switzerland’s electricity demand that could be expected in 2035. The other half would be met by hydroelectric power and import.
