Great Innovation

Switzerland is making strides in clean energy with a groundbreaking initiative: the installation of removable solar panels on active railway tracks.

Developed by the start-up Sun-Ways in collaboration with EPFL, the Swiss federal technology institute, this innovative system will be piloted on a track in Neuchâtel starting in 2025.

This project has the potential to revolutionize solar energy generation by leveraging existing railway infrastructure, offering a scalable and environmentally friendly solution without requiring additional land.
