Berlin Adlershof at the 27th EU PVSEC Frankfurt

24. - 28 Sept. 2012 // Ground 3 / E 27

The WISTA-MANAGEMENT GMBH, who develops and operates Germany`s leading Science and Technology Park in Berlin Adlershof, participates in the 27th EU PVSEC.

Currently, times are tough for the German solar industry. However, small
specialised companies seem to be escaping the
problems faced by the sector's big names unscathed. The key to the company's success: good research conditions resulting in customer-specific, high performance products.

New Centre for Photonics and Optics

You'll find Adlershof Company's at the excibition: Calisola, greateyes GmbH, Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin, PVcomB, Sentech Intruments GmbH, Solon, skytron energy GmbH.

"The new building is WISTA-MANAGEMENT GMBH's way of responding to the rising demand among companies looking for cost-effective, optimum working conditions", explains Bernd Ludwig, head of the ZPV. The modern production facility, laboratory and office building covering a rentable area of around 8,000 m² is tailored to meet the needs of companies from the photovoltaics/renewable energies segment. A wide PV system above the glass entrance area on the south side of the building will send a signal, visible even from the distance, that this is a location which is not only working on the future of energy supply, but is already putting these ideas into practice. This will be highlighted by an accreditation for the building given by the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB), who will award a "mixed use type" certification as part of a pilot initiative.
