Volkswagen SA Installs SolarEdge PV on Engine Plant
Looking for a top-quality, safe solar installation to deliver a quick return on investment, Volkswagen opted for SolarEdge.
Without the design flexibility of SolarEdge, we couldn’t have installed as many modules, or placed them as close to the obstructions that are shaded at different times of the day.

A roof with multiple extrusions was among the challenges to reaching Volkswagen’s ambitious energy targets. Over 100 onsite employees dictated the need for safety. SolarEdge was up to task, installing over 1500 Power Optimizers that could ensure maximum energy from the site, as well as increased site safety, using a fraction of the number of strings required at similar-sized sites.

- The SolarEdge Monitoring Platform tracks module performance in real-time, facilitating efficient preventative and corrective maintenance
- Maximum lifetime power harvesting from each module
- Built-in safety features that comply with safety standards
- Competitive price with the expectation of added energy, higher revenue, with a shorter ROI period
From our experience, by installing SolarEdge we saved some 12% on Balance of System (BoS) costs.
