A study has been conducted to determine whether it is possible to install solar panels on the roof of the Royal Palace of Stockholm. Simulations have been performed using physical models of the motion of the sun in Stockholm, solar panel angular dependence and atmospheric effects. Moreover, interviews with representatives from involved parties and gathering of market data have been conducted in order to understand what economical, antiquarian, legal, political and technical obstacles may be encountered and what is required for the installation of solar panels. Results show that a maximized solar plant on the roof of the Royal Palace of Stockholm, covering a total area of 4470 square meters would generate 500 MWh electricity annually. The electricity could be used to reduce the energy cost of operation leading to a decrease in electricity cost of approximately 675 000 SEK annually. An investment of 8 000 000 SEK is required according to market prices. Results indicate there are solutions to the antiquarian, legal, political and technical obstacles.
