In Sergey, in the Canton of Vaud, this village house has been given a new lease of life through an energy renovation that fully respects its original character.
The project primarily focused on renovating and insulating the attic. For several years, the homeowner had been looking for a photovoltaic solution based on small-format solar tiles that would preserve the traditional appearance of the roof. She discovered Freesuns through a personal recommendation.
Located close to the historic centre of the village, the property was subject to architectural requirements favouring the preservation of the traditional small red Vaud roof tiles.
Solaris™ VDiamond Terracotta photovoltaic roof tiles proved to be the ideal solution. Their compact format, warm red and brown colour, and seamless integration allow the roof to generate clean, renewable energy while preserving the building's architectural identity and the harmony of the surrounding village.
Today, the roof successfully combines energy performance with architectural authenticity. The homeowner is delighted with the result, demonstrating that solar energy can be integrated into historic villages without compromising their heritage.
