The use of solar power completes the sustainability concept of BayWa Bau & Garten in Schwabmünchen. Therefore a 1,400 m² roof-mounted photovoltaic system was installed from SENS to cover as much of the electricity consumption as possible using renewable energy. Almost 800 modules were installed, which generate around 270 kWp for the store’s own consumption to fulfil the power demands of the sales floor. This amounts to approximately 273,858 kWh per year. Operating the rooftop PV system is expected to result in annual savings of about 150 tonnes of climate-damaging CO₂.
