Questions about solar power in Rain

How much solar power does Rain already produce?
186 solar installations with 7 MWp in total are listed in the Swiss Federal Office of Energy register. That is an estimated ~23% of the municipality's roof potential.
Where do these numbers come from?
From federal open data: the register of electricity production plants and the solar potential of Swiss municipalities (Swiss Federal Office of Energy), plus swisstopo municipal boundaries. We only show totals per municipality, never individual installations.
Can I start a LEG in Rain?
Yes. A local electricity community is possible in any municipality, as long as all participants are in the same grid area and close to each other. UpGrid handles registration, metering and billing.

Sources: Swiss Federal Office of Energy (SFOE), swisstopo, opendata.swiss. As of October 2026. Totals per municipality only, no individual installations.
