This intervention regards the realization of a PV system on the existing office building of Buhler Electricitè company in Monthey, canton Valais (CH). The system produces 96 MWh/y total, allowing the total energy autonomy of its site.
On the original building, labeled Minergie in 2003, a perfectly integrated solar façade is installed on a part of the south side replacing the final layer of the wall, besides to a PV plant placed on the flat roof through an overlapped system.
