We develop pioneering solar systems for a better future

We at sbp sonne are independent consulting engineers for renewable energy projects – we invent, design, develop and implement innovative solar technologies for a sustainable future of energy production. Since many decades our company is one of the globally leading engineering offices for solar technologies. We have delivered hundreds of projects all over the globe.

Our mission

In one hour, the sun sends more energy to our planet than humans consume in an entire year. Solar power plants on only about 2 % of the earth’s deserts can provide all the energy required to meet our demand. The future belongs to those who succeed in harvesting these reserves effectively and profitably. We offer a wide range of products and tools to achieve that, from large-scale solar power plants to decentralized power supply systems, from concentrating solar power to photovoltaics. Interdisciplinary and holistically, we collaborate with manufacturers, EPCs, authorities, and utilities worldwide. Years of experience and the courage to break new ground are our daily motivation.

Techno-economic optimization

Minimizing the cost per kilowatt-hour for the electric energy provided or maximizing ROI is the main objective of solar power plant design and optimization. Thus, it can be reasonable to accept higher investment cost if, in return, the performance and output rise significantly, or the operating expenses decrease. It may also be clever to sacrifice ...

Design of solar components & systems

sbp sonne designs supporting structures, optical concepts and drives for solar collectors and supports clients in all service phases. We undertake the structural calculations and the associated dimensioning and optimization of these structures. Additionally, we perform techno-economic analyses for the supporting structure, optics and drives and optimize them. This also applies to the optical evaluation ...

Root cause analysis & technical due diligence

As consulting engineers in the renewable energy sector, sbp sonne helps owners, developers, lenders, insurers, and other stakeholders with their technologies and any challenges associated with them. To avoid expensive failures of systems, sbp sonne reviews your PV Tracker system, to secure your project investment and guarantee cost optimization. In case a failure happened already, ...

Technology development

We are continually breaking new ground and developing solar technology solutions that meet the tasks at hand – both in the PV and CSP market. From early concept design to the last bolt of the serial production process, sbp sonne covers every stage of the technology development. In addition, we provide heliostat field controls and ...

Feasibility Studies

sbp sonne is available to clients and builders as a technology consultant for all solar power generation systems. We conduct feasibility studies, efficiency and solar yield calculations, review technologies and concepts and calculate the levelized cost of electricity (LCoE). Furthermore, we help with site search and evaluation and supervise any necessary ground surveys. For comprehensive ...
