BRF Snödroppen consists of four residential buildings, built in 1956, with a total of 79 apartments. The association had recently installed a ground-source heating system to improve energy efficiency, which at the same time led to an increased demand for electricity. To meet this new demand and move towards a more sustainable energy supply, BRF Snödroppen turned to its long-time installer Krylbo Elmontage AB to explore the possibility of adding solar panels.
Krylbo Elmontage AB proposed a solar installation to complement the heat pump system and selected LEDVANCE as the supplier. LEDVANCE had long been a trusted partner in lighting, making it the natural choice for this project as well – thanks to its strong brand, high product quality, and reliable after-sales support. Solar panels were installed on two of the association’s four buildings, with a total of approximately 360 modules and a combined capacity of 154.8 kWp. The system now enables the association to generate part of its electricity locally, strengthening energy independence and sustainability.
The solar installation provides BRF Snödroppen with a sustainable energy source that perfectly complements the existing ground-source heating system. The combination reduces both electricity costs and the environmental footprint, while also future proofing the buildings from an energy perspective. LEDVANCE’s solution ensured a smooth installation with robust products from a trusted supplier. The association is already seeing clear benefits – both financially and environmentally.
With support from installer Krylbo Elmontage AB and LEDVANCE as the supplier, BRF Snödroppen in Avesta has installed approximately 360 solar panels across two of its four residential buildings. The aim was to meet the increased energy demand following the introduction of ground-source heating, while reducing climate impact. The result is a future-proof and energy-efficient solution that combines environmental value with financial savings, while also enhancing property value.
By adding a solar power system, we’ve been able to cover part of the increased energy demand with self-generated electricity – a solution that is both sustainable and cost-effective.
