Daimler Buses has installed 1,107 solar modules across more than 2,700 square metres of rooftop space at Neu-Ulm
Daimler Buses has commissioned a photovoltaic system at its Neu-Ulm plant in Germany, installing 1,107 solar modules across more than 2,700 square metres of rooftop space on the administration building and delivery hall. The installation has a total capacity of approximately 640 kilowatt-peak and is expected to generate around 680 megawatt hours of electricity annually for use at the bus manufacturing site.
The plant will use the generated electricity to cover a portion of the site’s overall power demand throughout the year. The photovoltaic system supplies sufficient energy to power both the employee canteen and the entire administration building under normal operating conditions, reducing the facility’s reliance on external grid electricity for these buildings and their associated operations.

On days when the plant is not in operation, such as weekends, public holidays and scheduled shutdowns, the electricity produced by the solar installation covers the site’s entire baseload demand. The renewable energy system enables the Neu-Ulm facility to generate electricity on-site, contributing to reduced energy costs and lower grid dependency for the bus manufacturing operation at the German production site.
The photovoltaic installation represents an investment in renewable energy infrastructure at the Neu-Ulm facility. Daimler Buses operates the site as part of its commercial vehicle production network, with the solar system forming part of ongoing energy efficiency and environmental measures at the manufacturing plant.
