."The facade maximizes this solar potential with a series of pleats, which support photovoltaic panels on their upper surface. The angle of these pleats is adjusted on all parts of the facade to maximize the energy-generating potential of the solar panels."Real-time metrics of power generation at a glance
The new measures enable the forthcoming structure to support at least 4,000 square feet of photovoltaic panels that can create nearly 1 million kilowatt-hours of clean energy annually. This is"an amount of energy equivalent to burning 85 tons of crude oil," added MVRDV in the report, stressing that this means the building is completely self-sufficient.
