AS Solar employs 140 people in Germany and renovated an industrial ruin to house its staff and simultaneously created a showroom, photovoltaic testing facility and "energy plus" renovation to demonstrate what is possible in terms of environmental renovation. The building, which cost around €7.5 million to renovate with the building process lasting 18 months, when fully equipped, will produce more electricity than it uses and features a rooftop photovoltaic installation and bio-mass heating. A solar carport and ground-mounted installation is also planned. AS Solar reported revenues of €128 million in 2010 which totalled photovoltaic sales worth 70 megawatts (MW).
