Research Objective
The photovoltaic test facility is being used to investigate the influence of the Alpine region on the electricity yield. Thanks to the reflection on the snow surface, the low air temperature and less fog compared to the Central Plateau, high yields can be achieved in winter, particularly with bifacial photovoltaic module.
