Nüssli has put its photovoltaic system into operation. With its 8000 square meters, this is the fourth largest solar system in the canton of Thurgau. It is operated by the electricity company of the canton of Schaffhausen (EKS). According to a media release , this was also the impetus for the construction of this plant. The 1.5 megawatt hours of solar power produced annually by the approximately 4,100 modules are fed into the network of the Hüttwilen power station .
This is two and a half times what the plant needs to be fully self-sufficient. The surplus is available to more than 300 four-person households in the area.
"We realize sustainable or even self-sufficient buildings for our customers," Nüssli CEO Andy Böckli is quoted as saying. “With the new system, we are now taking on even more responsibility on our premises. We are happy to go one step further towards a sustainable future together with EKS and to be able to supply ourselves with electricity.”
