A particularly pricey part is the aluminium structure needed to support the panels. Usually only large companies can afford a solar green roof, says Isabel Mühlbauer, a project manager at GRÜNSTATTGRAU. In 2021, Vienna introduced a subsidy for solar PV systems on green roofs, up to a maximum of €400 per kilowatt-peak.
In roof solar panels could be just the solution you're looking for if you want renewable energy without compromising the style of your home. They offer a sleek design and the same great benefits of traditional panels but do come with some trade-offs like cost and installation complexity.
The garden feels like an oasis amidst Vienna's densely packed buildings. It's a demonstration project by Vienna's University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (BOKU), to show how a green roof can be combined with solar panels while preserving the feel of a garden. In this case the solar panels are suspended 2m above the garden on a pergola.
For instance, solar panels that are partly translucent and use safety glass might be twice as expensive as ordinary solar panels. Simpler solar green roofs can now be found in a number of countries; leaders include the UK, Austria and Switzerland.
