About
Founded in 2022, Sedrun Solar is a private headquartered in Sedrun, Switzerland specializing in Solar.
Sedrun Solar is Switzerland's pioneering alpine photovoltaic large-scale facility located in the Graubünden region at 2,000 meters elevation. The project features 5,700 specially designed modular tables supporting 34,200 bifacial solar modules optimized for extreme alpine conditions. The installation achieves 19.3 MW peak capacity and produces approximately 29 GWh of electricity annually, with a notably high winter production rate of 47% due to snow reflection and favorable temperature conditions. The facility is designed for 60+ years of operation and incorporates innovative construction techniques including helicopter-assisted installation and cable transport systems. Six transformer stations and 67 inverters manage grid integration. The project integrates sustainable alpine farming practices, maintaining summer grazing areas beneath elevated module structures anchored via micropiles without concrete foundations. Environmental impact assessments confirm site suitability with biodiversity monitoring indicating potential habitat creation. Full operational capacity is targeted for end of 2028, supplying approximately 6,500 households with renewable energy. The project received community approval in August 2023 and regulatory construction permits in May 2024.
