The Erni House is a private mono-family house in Untersiggenthal. It is Minergie labeled. Beside to the general energy efficiency of the envelope, the building is characterized by a completely energized roof. PV integration is extended to the whole roof surface in which solar tiles replace the traditional tiling layer. Two skylights are placed within the solar surface and there is a chimney around which solar panel are removed due to the shadowing. The project received the 2011 Swiss Solar Prize.
