Renewable energy on the cycle path: Germany's first solar roof cycle path in Freiburg.

Renewable energy generation has reached a new milestone: Germany's first solar roof cycle path has been opened in Freiburg. The 300-metre-long cycle path at the Freiburg Trade Fair is equipped with over 900 solar modules and not only supplies electricity, but also protects cyclists from bad weather. This unique pilot project aims to enable renewable energy generation in densely populated urban areas.


The impressive structure consists of a futuristic-looking frame that not only provides a covered roadway, but also converts the sun's rays into energy. The solar roof is expected to produce around 280,000 kilowatt hours of green electricity per year, which is equivalent to the electricity consumption of more than 180 people.


This solar roof cycle path is a pioneering project that demonstrates how renewable energy can be integrated into everyday life. It is a big step towards a sustainable energy supply and a role model for other cities and municipalities that also want to promote renewable energy production.

Who: City of Freiburg
Where: Messe Freiburg, Germany
