General Solar PV: waterproofing and renewable energy in one, practical solution
Verkadefabriek is the renowned theatre and multiplex cinema in the city of Hertogenbosch (Den Bosh) in the Netherlands. With around 300,000 visitors and more than 6,000 activities a year including shows, concerts, films, dance, cabaret, debates and festivals, it soon became the cultural heart of the city.
In line with its green policies, in 2020 the Municipality of Den Bosch decided to equip the facility with a plant that exploits a renewable energy source, that could also be installed on curved surfaces and that was not so invasive as to spoil the aesthetics of Verkadefabriek.
In a specially designed refurbishment project, the roof was boosted up with General Solar PV by General Membrane: the flexible photovoltaic waterproofing system architecturally integrated, which allowed to obtain:
- a high-performance roof: waterproofed and capable of producing electricity from renewable source;
- respect and enhancement of the architectural structure;
- an integrated system: a single solution to stop the water and capture the sun.
