Did you know there is now a new guideline for the installation of photovoltaic systems on existing logistics buildings? The guide offers valuable advice and detailed information on how to carry out such projects efficiently and sustainably. It places special emphasis on how to optimally use the often large roof areas of logistics buildings. It also explains the technical and legal requirements that need to be considered, as well as the economic benefits that can be achieved through the use of solar energy. I think this is a great opportunity to further integrate renewable energy into industry while making good use of existing structures. What are your thoughts? Have you ever considered implementing such a project or perhaps already gained some experience with it?

Unnecessary. There are enough planners who can do this (which is almost everyone).

All my 125 logistics warehouses are already fully equipped with photovoltaic systems. But like most here, as a private individual, I am of course still acquiring more logistics warehouses. *Irony off*

Why is this coming up only now?
For years, I have been desperately trying to equip my logistics buildings (although I only have 14, unlike @nordanney) with photovoltaic systems and have repeatedly failed spectacularly.
I will definitely get the guide!

Theory and practice are always two different things. As often is the case.

This week, I visited a farmer who wanted to install a 100 kWp system on his grain storage building. As a bonus, he was offered a free 10 kWp system for his house roof.

Unfortunately, he did not receive approval for the 100 kWp system. In this rural area, there are no suitable grid connection points, and the network is too weak. He could only install 30 kWp, which means the system on the house roof would also be canceled.

Even for the 30 kWp system, he would have to lay 500 m (550 yards) of underground cable to a grid connection point at his own expense.

Pointless!

For my system, it took almost a year from the application to commissioning. The application, including all certificates, requests, and so on, amounted to about 50 DIN A4 pages.
