In the prestigious village of Les Diablerets, the owners chose to invest in a sustainable energy future. During the construction of their new chalet, only a few solar panels had been installed lower down on the slope. Soon, the need for more substantial electricity production became apparent.

Some time after their first contact with Freesuns, these clients came back with a clear request: optimize their roof to generate more energy, while preserving the high-end aesthetics of their property. Traditional tiles were therefore removed to make way for our Solaris™ Classic solar tiles.

The result:

• A 192 m² integrated solar roof
• An installed capacity of 24.27 kWp
• An installation paired with a battery, backup system, and a heat pump with a control module
• Complete annual autonomy for 9 months out of 12

The entire system blends perfectly with the chalet’s architecture and reflects a long-term vision of energy profitability and independence.

This project was carried out in collaboration with Lionel Pernet, an experienced roofer with whom we regularly work. Together, we ensured flawless execution, even in a demanding alpine environment.

This project demonstrates that solar energy is not only possible but also profitable at high altitude, without compromising on aesthetics or performance.
