About

Founded in 2001, Sunovation is a private headquartered in Obernburg, Germany specializing in Solar.

Since 2001, Sunovation has been developing and manufacturing building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) solutions using a proprietary silicon-gel encapsulation process. The company specializes in creating custom glass-glass modules for architectural applications, offering unprecedented design flexibility including variable transparency levels, custom colors (15 standard architectural colors plus custom options), and geometric variations (rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal, hexagonal, curved, and other shapes). Modules range from 0.4m² to 10m² and can incorporate monofacial, bifacial, or color-matched cells. Products include the eFORM clear (transparent), eFORM color (colored), eFORM unichrome (homogenous appearance), and eFORM decor (full-surface printed) product lines. The company operates manufacturing facilities in Obernburg, Germany and Dubai, UAE, serving international architecture offices and construction companies with projects spanning residential, commercial, institutional, and infrastructure sectors. Sunovation emphasizes superior aesthetics without compromising solar yield through crystalline cell technology and innovative glass configurations.
