Photovoltaic sliding shutter SolarSlide

The energy-generating SolarSlide photovoltaic sliding shutters were developed in collaboration with the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE) and offer maximum architectural freedom. Eight standard colours as well as bespoke shades make it possible to coordinate them beautifully with any façade concept. The choice of satin-finish, gloss or textured glass surfaces opens up further design options: opaque or semi-transparent, depending on the amount of light to be let in. 
The elegant glass-glass modules feature no visible solar cell structure, ensuring the façade’s aesthetics remain the visual focus. At the same time, the modules provide reliable sun protection and generate valuable solar electricity. 

Photovoltaic sliding shutters unlock valuable potential by actively using previously unused façade surfaces for energy generation, enabling buildings to contribute to the energy system. At the same time, they enhance visual appearance and protect interior spaces from overheating, all without visible technology. As a vertical photovoltaic solution, they integrate seamlessly into the overall concept and ideally complement conventional rooftop installations, thereby maximizing a building’s energy production all around.

The electricity generated can be used directly on-site, stored in a battery system or exported to the grid. This makes SolarSlide ideal for reducing energy costs and upgrading buildings to plus-energy standard. Thanks to high-quality materials such as toughened safety glass (ESG) and powder-coated aluminium, SolarSlide sliding shutters are durable, weather-resistant and virtually maintenance-free. 

Whether SolarSlide or SolarSlide Pro, both systems integrate easily, can be operated manually or by a motor, and deliver tailored solutions for projects of any size.
