Freesuns SA<\/a>, a Colombier-based start-up specialising in innovative solar tiles, has announced a capital increase of CHF 1 million. According to a press release<\/a>, this includes a strategic investment by the Renens-based PHIDA Groupe<\/a>. The collaboration opens up new perspectives for the future of renewable energies in French-speaking Switzerland. The family business PHIDA Groupe in Renens comprises 20 companies in four business areas: Construction, Events, Services and Investments.<\/p>\n

Freesuns believes in a world in which energy production is sustainable, environmentally friendly and aesthetic, according to the company’s website. For this reason, Freesuns has developed a range of special solar tiles that maximise the coverage of photovoltaic cells for every roof shape and style. To date, around 130 roofs in Switzerland have been covered in this way.<\/p>\n

“This capital injection will enable us to expand our business, push the boundaries of building-integrated photovoltaics and get closer to our vision: Solar roof tiles on every roof,” Deborah Learoyd, the managing director of Freesuns, is quoted as saying in an article<\/a> on startupticker.ch. The start-up intends to use the capital to continue research and development in the area of software and hardware solutions and to expand its sales to new markets.<\/p>\n

“We are delighted to be working with Freesuns on its mission to revolutionise roofing materials with beautiful solar roof tiles. This will allow us to offer our customers the latest solar roof tile technologies and maintain our position as the market leader in the building envelope sector in French-speaking Switzerland,” said Bastien Sauve, CEO of PHIDA Groupe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
