A social space with solar external skin designed by architects Ortner + Ortner Baukunst has been erected on the campus of Potsdam University of Applied Sciences. Designed as a “live gallery”, a PV pavilion has been created with 4-metre-high break-proof solar modules from Odersun AG.
The 35-meter-long photovoltaic pavilion adds the finishing touch to the university campus of Potsdam University of Applied Sciences and is to be used as a space for social events, brainstorming ideas and presentations. The Odersun solar modules, which are just under 4 meter high and 1 meter wide, cover the whole building.
“We are delighted to have had the opportunity to implement such a unique project with such a reputable partner,” says Dr. Hein van der Zeeuw, CEO of Odersun AG. “It gave us the chance to show how much flexibility is possible in the field of solar construction, and also the unusual module sizes that can be produced, without any compromises in terms of design and functionality,” he explains.
