In the government district of Düsseldorf, an embarrassing glitch causes the Roof of the Ministry of Construction is not strong enough to Solar system The listed building from the 1930s was built without the possibility of generating solar energy. Plans for the installation of a solar system have been put on hold for the time being. Despite this setback, the government of Hendrik Wüst is continuing to expand solar energy in North Rhine-Westphalia with already planned installations on other state buildings to help meet the country's climate protection goals.

According to statistics, there was an increasing number of solar systems on public buildings in North Rhine-Westphalia, especially on state roofs, in the years leading up to 2024. These measures were part of a larger plan to promote renewable energy and reduce CO2 emissions in the region.
However, the embarrassing solar failure at the Ministry of Construction in NRW throws a spotlight on the challengesassociated with the installation of solar energy on historic buildings. It is estimated that almost 900,000 buildings in North Rhine-Westphalia were built before 1950 and therefore could present similar structural problems when building solar systems.
For the future of solar energy in NRW, this could mean that additional measures and investments are required to structurally improve existing buildings and adapt them to the requirements of modern solar systems. This could lead to delayed schedules and higher costs, which could pose a challenge for the implementation of the state's climate protection goals.
Despite these difficulties, there are plans to continue the expansion of solar energy in NRW and to install more photovoltaic systems on public buildings. This shows the government's continued commitment to the transition to clean energy and the achievement of long-term environmental goals in the region.
