Solar fence for companies and municipalities
Fence with dual applications
Enclosures are usually unavoidable on commercial and industrial properties – with the Next2Sun bifacial solar fence, you can become an electricity supplier or cover your own electricity needs. The solar fence can make an important contribution to the generation of needed energy and increase self-sufficiency from external supply. The solar fence offers a variety of design options: In addition to enclosure and protection from intruders, the fence can act not only as a privacy screen and a high-quality decorative element. In addition, it is possible to further enhance the prestigious property visually and thereby convey innovation and sustainability at the same time.
Benefits of the Next2Sun solar fence
- With the solar fence, existing property boundaries can not only be fenced in well, but can also be optimally used for your own power generation or grid feed-in. Also suitable for parking lots of shopping centers, between the rows of cars standing together.
- Easy installation and maintenance due to ground level arrangement.
- The east-west oriented fence runs provide significantly better results in the morning and evening time than conventional rooftop installations. The north-south orientation can also capture the low sun particularly well. In combination with the high rear side efficiency of the bifacial modules, electricity production also runs on the side not directly exposed to sunlight and brings a further efficiency effect.
- Good yield even in winter: While the rooftop system produces little or no power in snowy conditions or requires extensive clearing, the solar fence even benefits from the stronger ground reflection.
- The slim design, modern look and durability of the solar fence make it the optimal space-saving and visually appealing fence replacement with real added value!

4 Savings in electricity consumption at current kWh prices from the regional standard provider (19 ct/kWh), with an installed capacity of 30.02 kW and an annual production of 1,050 kWp, with 80% (70%) self-consumption solar fence (rooftop), surplus feed-in at 6 ct/kWh
5 PV system price: calculated with € 1.200,- cost per kWp
6 Comparison product: double bar fence incl. Assembly, price net in comparable amount (€ 120,- per linear meter)
How much does the solar fence cost?
Calculate here, with the help of your personal property conditions, the possible output, the potential annual electricity yield and the rough estimated cost of your solar fence!
For the yield and cost estimation, we need the total length of the planned fencing/enclosure with the solar fence, as well as the number of corners or corner elements that may be needed.

Thoughts on solar fences
- Solid steel construction, consisting of two posts and two bars.
- Simple, highly efficient bifacial glass-glass solar module that can be installed virtually shade-free.
- The foundations can be built on piled steel profiles, involve installation via individual concrete footings or be wall-mounted.
- 1.1 metres or 1.5 metres high and 2.11 long (post centre to centre). The dimensions of the PV module are 1 x 2 metres.
- Double yields available: two modules can be stacked on top of each other (height 2.3 m to approx. 3 m).
- Installed on or in concrete walls (including between concrete posts) or using individual concrete footings. In open grassland areas, can also be installed by piling foundation posts.
- If desired, the distance between the solar fence and the Solar fence can be filled with a perforated plate, wire mesh, a stanchion plate or an aluminium plate.
- A gap of 10, 15 or 20 centimetres can be used to compensate for the incline when installing on concrete walls.
- The Premium Solar Fence is available galvanised or powder-coated in anthracite (RAL7016).
At present, only 13.2 percent of the installed system capacity from renewable
Energies owned by tradesmen. Thereby, there is a Germany and Austria around 3.5
million companies whose energy needs offer enormous potential for the expansion of decentralized
Energy generation through photovoltaics offers.
For example, you are thinking of building a new fence and are looking for the right approach here? Think about a solar fence: A solar fence is actually nothing more than a photovoltaic system with solar panels, except that the solar panels are not on the roof, but
be mounted on the fence.
