The very the floating roof's architecture is spectacular. Using the 1000m2 surface for a solar plant suits the architectural concept. More than 400 modules were integrated into the platform applying the structural-gazing technic. The roof's construction and the solar plant weigh 120 tones in total. The produced electricity is beeing used to run a flight simulator. Excessive power can be fed in the mean voltage grid of the military site.
