Project Background

Located in Maastricht-West, this educational hub is setting a benchmark for energy self-sufficiency in the Netherlands. Powered by SAJ’s CHS2 Commercial & Industrial PV and Energy Storage System, the site combines 1,500 square meters of rooftop solar panels with 12 CHS2 units  operating in parallel—delivering a total capacity of 600kW/1.2MWh.

 

Project Benefits

With this setup, the facility is able to:

Closed-Loop Energy: Solar generation → battery storage → on-demand consumption achieves zero external energy reliance.

Resource Efficiency: Heat pumps powered by renewables enable eco-friendly heating/cooling.

Community Engagement: Interactive energy displays educate children and families on sustainability.

This project demonstrates how educational institutions can lead the energy transition by embracing innovative, scalable solutions for a greener future.
