At 2,760 square metres, the Lankwitz REWE rooftop farm surpasses Germany's previous rooftop agricultural installations. The greenhouse uses hydroponic technology, waste heat from cooling systems, rainwater, and solar power to operate year-round.
“We don't even have an extra truck on the road that usually is necessary to transport the goods from the producer to the central distribution.”
