What is PowerNEXT?
IBIS Power introduces PowerNEXT – an innovation in local generation of solar and wind energy. PowerNEXT visibly generates large amounts of solar and wind power year-round on the roof of a building, making a remarkable statement in energy transition and sustainability. This system, specifically designed for buildings with a higher energy demand than what traditional local generation solutions can provide, combines wind turbines in a nest of solar panels. The design maximally utilizes physical principles to boost energy production while also visibly demonstrating a commitment to a sustainable future… It is an effective, integrated renewable energy solution that not only covers significant energy needs but also acts as an urban showcase for sustainability.
Main Benefit
The main benefit of PowerNEXT can be summed up with a few key points:
- High energy generation capacity tailored for high-demand buildings
- Innovative combination of wind turbines and solar panels for improved efficiency
- Demonstrates investment in long-term sustainable energy practices
- Optimally utilizes physical principles to maximize renewable energy production
- Significantly contributes to the energy transition and renewable innovation
Building Energy Demand and Solutions
For building managers and property owners who are responsible for one or more structures with energy demands that surpass the traditional grid or other local generation options, PowerNEXT offers a strategic solution. When faced with buildings that do not yet comply with local energy production laws and regulations, this system provides the flexibility needed to adopt a long-term answer to energy demands. It is particularly useful during the early stages of renovation, new construction, or even a sustainability update – a perfect match for those who hold sustainable ambitions and wish to make their achievements visible to both the environment and the market. The ability to also be suitable for eventual energy storage makes it a future-proof solution… a true game changer in modern energy management.
Projects Showcase
Some of the most impressive projects that have already embraced PowerNEXT include a diverse list of locations which stand as testaments to its capability. Among these projects are Zadkine College Rotterdam, Valkenburg Airport Katwijk aan Zee, Eden District Residential Complex Rotterdam, Haasje Over Residential Complex Eindhoven, Fruitweg Municipality of The Hague, and The Social Hub Hotel Eindhoven. Each project not only benefits from high-quality energy generation but also enhances the visual portfolio of sustainable energy investments in their respective cities.
Latest News and Updates
PowerNEXT continues to make headlines and drive local sustainable innovation. Among the latest news: PowerNEST recently turned a government building in The Hague into an energy producer (article in VV+ on June 5, 2025), and the innovative technology made its Belgian debut on the rooftops of residential towers for housing association LeefGoed on February 26, 2025. Those interested in a reflection on change will find insights in the piece, “A new year, a new era: PowerNEXT and sustainable innovation,” published on January 1, 2025. Also, there are exciting developments such as the opening of PowerNEST at City Hall Fruitweg in The Hague on December 2, 2024, and the retrospective look by Dick van Driel, CEO of IBIS Power, after a year in leadership on July 18, 2024. Finally, the final PowerNEST module was installed at a municipal building on Fruitweg in The Hague on July 11, 2024, along with a brand evolution marked by a new logo on May 23, 2024… all these updates illustrate a dynamic path toward renewable innovation.
Implementation and Future Prospects
As part of a larger movement towards sustainable, integrated, and high-efficiency renewable solutions, PowerNEXT sets the stage for long-term, innovative energy management. The inclusion of both solar and wind technologies in one system not only enhances overall energy output but also positions these buildings as beacons of future-forward thinking. With each installation, the system refines its methods, supporting evolving electrical standards and embracing improvements in energy storage technologies. The approach is not merely about generating power – it is redefining the concept of urban energy independence with a palpable, visible impact on cityscapes.
