Project Overview Located in Arnavutköy, Istanbul, this 45.5 kWp rooftop facility represents a strategic integration of renewable energy into public infrastructure. Designed to reduce operational expenditure for municipal services, the project utilizes a pitched roof mounting system to house 140 PV modules, effectively turning a public building into a self-sustaining energy generator.
The Challenge The project required the installation of a solar array on a public building situated in a dense urban area. The primary challenge was to engineer a system that respects the architectural silhouette and structural limitations of the existing pitched roof, while ensuring the highest safety standards required for public zones.
The Solution Solarexen delivered a tailored Engineering and EPC solution for public assets. We installed 140 units of 325 Wp photovoltaic panels using a non-intrusive mounting structure designed for pitched roofs. The system is powered by a single, robust 50 kW inverter, ensuring efficient AC conversion and seamless integration with the building’s internal electrical network.
Key Impact By securing a dedicated renewable energy source, the facility significantly lowers its grid consumption and operational costs. This project serves as a tangible benchmark for urban sustainability, demonstrating how public administration buildings can lead the transition to a low-carbon city model.
