Google and E.ON have joined hands to offer Google’s Project Sunroof to the residents in Germany. This tool provides an easy-to-use way to help determining the benefits of solar for their own rooftop. The mapping is provided by Google Earth which in combination with the Google Sunroof provides consumers all the necessary information on how and why to install the solar energy on their roofs. E.ON said,” homeowners can easily and precisely determine their home’s potential solar capacity and generate plans for installing a solar system. All they need to do is enter their address online.” COO, E.ON said, “It clearly demonstrates the potential benefits of digitalization for the ongoing shift in energy production. Along with Sunroof and E.ON SolarCloud, we will be developing additional digital products in order to offer our customers the highest degree of independence and security through E.ON solar systems.” The service is expected to be available in Munich, Berlin, Rhein-Main and the Ruhr. “Google has been relying on renewable energy sources for many years in supplying the needs of its own infrastructure and beyond. With Sunroof our goal is to encourage more people tapping into the potential found in their own rooftops,” Philipp Justus, Vice President of Google in Germany and Central Europe said.
