The Stade de Suisse, formerly known as the Wankdorf Stadium, in Bern, Switzerland is a brand new, modern, hi-tech stadium with a capacity for 32,000 fans to enjoy fantastic football and super exciting outdoor ice hockey! The Stade de Suisse was opened in 2005 after the old Wankdorf Stadium was demolished in 2001.

After the additional installation of 2,808 solar modules, this state-of-the-art stadium now has a total of over 7,930 modules from the Japanese technology company Kyocera, providing an overall output of 1,346.774 kWp. The complete plant produces an annual energy yield of 1,134,045 kWh and saves on the emission of 630 tonnes of CO2 per annum.

The stadium of the Swiss first league club BSC Young Boys Bern has the world’s largest stadium-integrated photovoltaic plant on its roof.

The Stade de Suisse Wankdorf Bern has been honoured for its integration of the photovoltaic plant with both the Swiss and European Solar Awards and was the venue for the European football championships (UEFA EURO 2008) in Switzerland and Austria.
