About
Founded in 2009, HELIOPLANT is a private headquartered in Innsbruck, Austria specializing in Solar.
HELIOPLANT® is an innovative photovoltaic technology engineered for sustainable energy generation in mountain regions. The system features a distinctive cross-shaped design that naturally maintains snow-free surfaces through wind turbulence, preventing damage from extreme weather conditions like heavy snow and high winds. Unlike conventional linear or table-mounted systems, HELIOPLANT requires minimal land area per kWp, enables flexible terrain positioning, and reduces interference with the natural landscape. The technology delivers consistent winter performance exceeding 570 kWh/kWp in winter months while distributing energy evenly throughout the day to stabilize grid load. HELIOPLANT was developed by a team of experts in geology, natural hazards, wind/snow mechanics, construction, photovoltaics, and electrical engineering, drawing on experience from Europe's highest photovoltaic installation at Wildkogl (2009) and the Pitztal Glacier system (2015). The company operates engineering offices in Austria and Switzerland with assembly partnerships, targeting sustainable alpine energy production that harmonizes technological innovation with nature conservation.
