SoLAr ceLLS
The superior performance of our solar cells
starts on the surface. Precise quality and tolerance controls make up the basis for top-class efficiency. Top technology
is not only found in our individual prod-
ucts, but is also the benchmark for our
standard solutions.
Sunways offers the right cells for every need. Besides high-performance cells transparent or coloured design cells highlight the main points of building-integrated photovoltaics without ad-versely affecting efficiency.
with our transparent cells we are expand-
ing the fields of application for solar cells.
Through a new manufacturing process
using lasers, it is possible to create slots for
translucency and still achieve an efficiency
of up to 14.4 %. Let the sun in!

along with electricity supply, our products
can also take over functions of the build-
ing envelope.
AuToMoTiVe SecTor
The mechanical demands placed on solar
cells are extremely high in the automotive
sector. Then there are the highest aesthetic
requirements as well. our superior quality
and design have proven themselves here
too. Thanks to their production quality,
their resistance to environmental influenc-
es and their flawless appearance, Sunways
Solar cells are a perfect product for the
automotive sector.
our black design cells are characterised by
their especially high efficiency and an overall
homogeneous surface.

BiPV
To perfectly integrate photovoltaics into a building, we work closely with our customers. Only this can guarantee that wishes and demands are met. The result
is highly individual systems which are a perfect part of the whole building. cells, modules
and other system components are individually made and assembled by us.
our large choice of colours and shapes, as well as the option of individual manufac-ture and adjustment, allow us to rely on Sunways quality in all areas. our service
portfolio also includes working as a general contractor – we are happy to undertake
planning, production and implementation to offer you the best possible solution.
BiPV makes it possible to make sustainable buildings without adversely affecting
their appearance and design. The result is the natural and yet impressive everyday
integration of photovoltaic solutions.

Gehry Building – Transparency for daylight
The possibilities offered by building-integrated photovoltaics are reflected in the Gehry Building. our silver solar cells provide not only energy, but also protection
from excessive solar radiation. in order to best use the daylight in the rooms, transparent
Sunways Solar cells were built. This means that the cells are thereby used for both energy production and the filtering of daylight. each cell was perforated individu-
ally, meaning that particularly uniform filtering could be achieved.
During the project, as well as producing these highly individual cells, Sunways also con-sulted a firm of architects and specialist planners. The result is impressive not just
in its design, but also in terms of the completely successful integration of photovoltaics
into the overall project.
As well as multi-space office areas, the building houses an auditorium
with more than 600 seats, teaching rooms and a restaurant. A total of
125,000 monocrystalline transparent Sunways Solar cells were used
for the roof construction.

westendgate – Highest demands taken literally
over the course of the extensive energy-conserving renovation of the westendGate,
which was built in 1976, an innovative and unique photovoltaic system took shape.
westendGate is the first office building in frankfurt, Germany, to be completely covered
with a photovoltaic system.
while the photovoltaic system contributes to a better CO2 balance during the day, at
night the LED light bands running between the modules ensure a lightshow and
illuminate the building’s façade.

what DeliGhtS aRchitectS anD DeSiGneRS? SMALL BLAcK oBjecTS.
In a private project, the wishes of the customer are particularly important –
taking different demands into account under one roof. for the realisation of his vision,
architect and town planner Pascal Gontier searched for highly efficient monocrystalline
black solar cells which could also be aesthetically integrated into the building. He found
the right partner in Sunways.
The result can be seen clearly: The building impresses not only with its consistent and modern appearance, but Gontier also managed to create a positive-energy house.
Through the combination of the photovoltaic system with various further construction
principles such as triple glazing, a ventilation system with energy recovery and a geo-
thermal heat pump, the house produces more energy than it needs. A real stunner.

Gontier trusted the quality and the
extremely high efficiency from Sunways
in his choice of inverter too.

eDeKA Südwest – complete package for freshness and quality
One of the most state-of-the-art meat and sausage processing plants in Europe has become even more cutting-edge thanks to Sunways. from rheinstetten, near
Karlsruhe in Germany, over 1,250 markets are supplied with meat and sausage specialities
from the region.
eDeKA Südwest relied on the experience and quality of Sunways during the construction
of its roof system and completely entrusted us with the planning, project manage-ment and installation. The result of this trust is the perfect interaction of 1,710 Sunways Modules and 30 Inverters. Through our experience we managed to meet
the tight timeframes for the realisation of the project and guarantee the feed-in tariff.
1,710 standard modules with 230 watts
peak make up the whole surface of the
roof system.
The solar modules work together with
30 nT 12000 type inverters and so ensure
a total output of 393.3 kilowatts peak.

The requirements of the automotive industry are a perfect opportunity for Sunways to
make our quality, production precision and resistance mobile for you. The particu-
larly high design requirements of Maybach, Audi and others are well met by Sunways
Solar cells.
The e-bike sector, as an environment-friendly and flexible alternative in city traffic, is also
growing in importance with double-digit growth rates. Together with its development
partners, Sunways ensures a “solar charging station with mobility guarantee.”
SMArT – A wHoLe roof fuLL of Power
with the Smart fortwo used by car2go, the mobility concept from Daimler, implementa-
tion goes a step further. The entire roof surface is utilised to generate electricity using
Sunways Solar cells. So the car can be supplied with additional power of up to 100 watts to charge the battery and keep the interior cool. This lowers fuel con-sumption and CO
2 emissions.
Mobile solutions – Getting there with photovoltaics
How does photovoltaics protect your
