Photovoltaic Building Facade for University of Cantabria | Spain The University of Cantabria’s engineering school is one of the most prestigious engineering schools in Spain. The campus is located in Santander, along the northern coast of the country. Challenge When the engineering school expanded its building complex, they sought a renewable solar power solution that would supply power to the expansive classroom and laboratory space for the school's Department of Electronics Technology, Systems and Automation Engineering (TEISA). Solution Louis Berger was contracted to conduct a feasibility study, prepare a detailed design and provide construction supervision for a 65 kW photovoltaic energy system integrated with the TEISA building's new 8-story façade. The alternative energy solution is
