Le Mont-Soleil, avec ses centrales solaires et éoliennes existantes depuis 1992, pourrait accueillir une grande installation photovoltaïque (PV). D'ici fin 2025, elle devrait produire une importante part d’électricité "hivernale" comme l’exige en urgence la Confédération.

PV-Bench 23-24 Mont-Soleil': it's on! (23.02.2022)
In view of the solar offensive launched by the Federal Parliament, scientific quality analyses began today in Mont-Soleil in the Bernese Jura. The aim of the pilot project 'PV-Bench 23-24 Mont-Soleil' is to contribute to an optimal and sustainable use of solar energy by saving as much suitable surface area as possible. To this end, market-relevant solar cells will be tested in the new open-air laboratory at an altitude of 1'200 meters in a producer-neutral manner and the results will be made available to the interested public. The pilot project is carried out in close cooperation between the Mont-Soleil Society (SMS), the regional association Espace découverte Energie (EdE) and the Bern University of Applied Sciences (BFH), in contact with the Ticino University of Applied Sciences SUPSI, the French-speaking University of Applied Sciences HE-Arc as well as the Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology Neuchâtel and Lausanne.

Long-term correlation of operational data with weather patterns (27.09.2021)
ARTICLE IN «BULLETIN SEV/VSE»
Photovoltaics (PV) is becoming a mainstay of power supply. It is therefore worthwhile to investigate the weather influences on PV yield in order to refine business plans or optimize interconnection with other energy sources. Long-term operating data from the Mont-Soleil solar power plant were correlated with meteorological data for this purpose.
