Customised solutions for photovoltaic roofs
Standardised solar systems often do not meet the architectural requirements. TEXEP provides custom solar solutions to individualise existing systems or develop new solutions that meet the desired design of the building.
Our team of experts works closely with architects, clients and project stakeholders to achieve this goal and optimise the aesthetics, energy efficiency and sustainability of the entire building through the solar system.

Residential SunStyle project in Solothurn, Switzerland

Residential house in Solothurn: The roof of this beautiful residence in the picturesque canton of Solothurn was originally covered with traditional plain tiles.
A customised solution was developed to ensure that the elegance and aesthetics of the stately country house were not lost through the new solar modules: The choice of terracotta-coloured solar tiles, which were harmoniously matched to the original roof design in terms of both size and colour, preserves the timeless elegance of the building while at the same time enabling sustainable energy generation.
Almost 1’000 terracotta-coloured solar tiles were used, achieving a total output of 65 kWp.

Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America, a new electric vehicle and battery manufacturing facility, is planning to start production in early 2025. Its car park is covered with a canopy out of 20’000 solar panels, generating 5.5 Megawatt of energy. The PV panels use the Kromatix color technology and color the roof with green, grey and blue tones.

Residential house in Bern: The client’s high requirements could only be met with the X-Curve design, as a curved structure had to be created that could be integrated into the architecture of the building. The X-Curve modules can be installed flexibly, even on curved or radial structures.

Saint Charles Solaire remains one of the most significant PV installations worldwide realised with building-integrated PV elements. Under the leadership of André Posnansky, the owner and CEO of TEXEXP Ltd, the nine buildings of the logistics centre with an area of over 68’000 m² were renovated using building-integrated photovoltaic shingles, creating a solar power plant with an output of 9 megawatts.
The solar roof developed as part of this project was later named Sunstyle® and is now marketed by Sunstyle LTD.
