As a creative logistic warehouse partner, Heylen Warehouses asked their customers how they could create more value. It became clear that they could do so by neutralizing their customers’ carbon footprints. To do even better, Heylen Warehouses makes them energy positive by creating the world’s most powerful solar roof.

The installation of what will be 49,040 solar panels on the roof of the Venlo E-Commerce Logistic Campus in Limburg, The Netherlands, will cover an area of 12.6 hectares which is the equivalent of 20 soccer fields. The roof will be able to generate enough electricity to power 4,500 homes for a whole year while producing 12,000 tonnes less carbon dioxide. The power generated will be used mainly for the campus, as well as some separate buildings.
