Intersolar 2026 - SUNOVATION eFORM unichrome

#exhibition

Obernburg, June 2026 – The leading exhibition for the solar industry will take place again in Munich from June 23–25, 2026. At Intersolar, along with accompanying trade fairs and a wide-ranging conference program, industry professionals and interested visitors will be presented with the latest innovations in photovoltaics, storage technologies, and grid integration. If you’d like to take a closer look at a SUNOVATION eFORM unichrome BIPV module manufactured in Germany, we recommend visiting the Ceramic Colors Wolbring booth in Hall A2/615. This product was used to install a ~900 m² BIPV facade in Baden-Württemberg. Highlights: BIPV modules in 40 different sizes, some of which are oversized with a module area of > 6 m², and customized colors according to customer specifications.

Update BIPV-Facade Macherei Berlin

Completion of the solar facade

Obernburg, May 2026 – The BIPV facade on the Macherei M50 high-rise, consisting of custom-manufactured SUNOVATION eFORM modules, is nearly complete. As one of Germany’s most climate-friendly high-rises, the building exemplifies an integrated planning approach in which energy efficiency, safety, and architecture were all considered from the very beginning in collaboration with strong partners. Especially in the case of sophisticated architecture, the interplay of design, fire safety, quality, and customizability determines long-term success. We would therefore like to thank all project partners who initiated, planned, supported, and implemented this project hand-in-hand with expertise, precision, foresight, and passion, and who took us along on this journey.

Sustainable Energy at the Esslingen District Office

Obernburg, April 2026 – A benchmark for sustainable architecture: with its modern facade design, the Esslingen District Office, designed by BFK Architekten, is reducing its carbon footprint, saving on energy costs in the long term, and at the same time impressing with a high-quality facade aesthetic. Custom-manufactured SUNOVATION eFORM BIPV modules reliably generate renewable energy from solar power directly on-site. This way, the authority is focusing on energy efficiency and CO₂ reduction — sustainably, efficiently and with style.

Facade renovation with building-integrated photovoltaics

Facade, Energy Source and Design Element

Obernburg, March 2026 –  This facade renovation is truly impressive. What used to be an aging high-rise residential building is now a modern structure featuring an active building envelope and a tenant-power concept — an example of how existing architecture can be given a new future. At the heart of the solution: an integrated photovoltaic facade by SUNOVATION on the south and west facades. Thanks to the visionary developer Tuttlinger Wohnbau GmbH, what started as a classic renovation has become an architectural upgrade that combines design, sustainability and increased value.
