What applies in Niederhelfenschwil

The Swiss Federal Office of Energy puts the solar electricity potential of the suitable roof surfaces in Niederhelfenschwil at 38.24 GWh a year.

An array's annual yield is therefore decided in the summer half of the year, which is exactly when soiled modules cost the most.

Each is a few minutes drive from the next, and numerous new residential buildings have gone up in recent years.
