Berlin main railway station (Berlin, Germany, 2002)
Type of project:
Integration type:
The frameless PV modules replace part of the laminated glazing of the
transparent concourse of Berlin
main railway station. They are mounted in lines on a steel grid. Because the
structure had to follow the curve of the tracks, each module is unique in terms
of angularity and dimensions – ranging between 1.5m² and 2.5m². The different
angles of inclination of these practically ideally customised modules result in
a connection concept based on string inverters. This not only maximises yield,
but also simplifies monitoring of the system (scheuten.com).
