Bauhaus gets one of Uppsala's largest photovoltaic installations

March 30, 2023
From this summer, Bauhaus in Uppsala will be able to take home summer production of solar energy through their new solar cell system. In a complete delivery from SBP, the department store will have one of Uppsala's largest roof installations.

At the end of February, the installation of the Bauhaus solar cell system began at the department store in Uppsala, just a stone's throw from the E4 highway. It is a 500 kW plant, where the panels at the time of writing have just been mounted on the roof. While waiting for the spring's unexpected snowfall to thaw, work on the cabling will be completed and the entire plant is expected to be ready for inspection by the end of April.
- "We had expected the weather to cause problems, so we are right on schedule. It was gratifying that I was handed a very well-designed facility by our System Design department and this, combined with good cooperation with our contact persons from Bauhaus, the project has flowed very smoothly, says Linda Axwik, Project Manager at SBP.

In May, the inspection of the facility, which upon completion will be one of Uppsala's largest roof facilities, will begin and then Bauhaus will be able to run the business on solar energy from the most productive part of the year.
- From an environmental aspect, it is increasingly important for customers that their suppliers have a positive attitude towards the green transition. Thanks to this investment, Bauhaus has a proven drive to take a strong environmental position, which will be a model for others, both nationally but perhaps especially locally, as they are such a large player in the trade, concludes Linda Axwik.
