The PV roof project located on Steyr Automotive’s 85,000 square-meter roof in Austria has gone into operation.

The approximately 7.5 MW system was installed using the Schletter FixGrid and ClampFit systems. Schletter Group worked with the energy supplier Burgenland Energie on this project, which the company says is Austria’s largest PV roof project.

On the pitched roof surfaces, the modules were mounted directly onto the trapezoidal metal sheeting using the SingleFix and ClampFit clamps. Schletter seam clamps were also used in some areas where the roof sheets were joined with standing seams.

“A rooftop system of this size is not only an important milestone for the operator, but also for Austria as a PV location,” says Fabian Madl, Schletter Group’s key account manager. “At the same time, we as a business are further consolidating our good position in a very dynamic Austrian market.”

Located on the factory roofs of automotive and commercial vehicle manufacturer Steyr Automotive in the town of Steyr, the company will cover around a quarter of its energy requirements with the solar power generated.

Schletter Group is currently supplying Austria’s largest ground-mounted PV system, also in cooperation with Burgenland Energie.

There is a maxim in marketing warning against “promoting the enemy line,” this is so clever, I can see where it could be quite effective.

But did any of us see this coming?

A Profile in Corporate Greed

Published

I just met a woman who’s been a flight attendant for Delta Airlines since the early 1990s, who laments that her company has been ruined by corporate greed, which has trashed so many other things in our lives.

As it turns out, the CEO makes more than $20 million per year, largely based on bonuses associated with cutting costs.  “Now we have tray tables that don’t work and seatbacks that don’t recline, and nobody even thinks about fixing them.”

She went on, “This shift has been particularly obvious in the case of Delta, which, when I started with them, was known for its southern charm and the feeling of welcoming its passengers.  Now, that gone.  It’s like it never existed.”
