The unnecessary cost of the country house can be a thing of the past with a simple installation of a photovoltaic system, the cost of which starts at just 700 euros.
At a time when new expenses are coming from … nowhere for every family, with revenue going upside down, reducing unnecessary waste is essential. Especially if you consider the cost – which is on a permanent basis – to each landlord for a property, an additional home, such as a cottage, has become a … super-luxury. In fact, it is most often for a home that is used only for a few months, if not days, every year, with its costs being fixed and often exorbitant.
Bearing in mind that the most common use of holiday homes is during the summer, their maintenance and operation costs are disproportionately high.
Most of these costs relate to electricity and the various costs and services charged to the accounts even when the residence is used little or no. At the same time, the energy self-sufficiency of such a home is quite easy, completely efficient and the cost of investment is very limited.
This fact is confirmed in practice and therefore, in order to have a complete picture of this process, we present 3 different proposals for energy autonomy of a country house for the period from 15 May to 15 September, due to the low installation cost and for the purpose of the complete decommissioning of the PPC network and the other charges that accompany it.
SMALL AUTONOMOUS
By installing such a simple autonomous photovoltaic system, you will be able to meet your basic lighting needs, the operation of a refrigerator and some small appliances. The following appliances are supported in this house with their respective consumptions:
-5 Economy lamps 15W each, for 5 hours a day
-1 TV, for 5 hours a day
– Small refrigerator (mini bar) with 24-hour operation
DESCRIPTION OF THE AUTONOMOUS SYSTEM
To meet the above energy requirements, an Autonomous Photovoltaic System was set up consisting of:
-1 Photovoltaic panel rated power 120 Wp
-1 inverter 350W
-1 charge regulator
-1 Battery 12V, 100 Ah -Aluminum support system
-Colorization of tinned copper and UV protection
-Electrology (tables, etc.)
The above system now costs on average (depending on the materials to be selected) 700 € (including VAT).
MEDIUM AUTONOMOUS
By installing such a simple autonomous photovoltaic system, you will be able to meet your basic lighting needs, operate a freezer cooler, charge a laptop and some small appliances.
In this house, the following devices are supported with their respective consumptions: -5 Economy lamps 15W each, for 5 hours a day
-1 TV, for 5 hours a day
-1 Laptop, for 2 hours charging
-2 electrical appliances up to 300W per device for 30 days
-Fridge freezer with 24-hour operation
DESCRIPTION OF THE AUTONOMOUS SYSTEM
To meet the above energy requirements, an Autonomous Photovoltaic System was set up consisting of:
-2 Photovoltaic panels of nominal power 230 Wp (watt), total power 460 Wp
-1 800W inverter
-1 charge regulator
-2 Batteries 12V, 150 Ah
-Aluminum support system
-Colorization of tinned copper and UV protection
-Electrology (tables, etc.) The above system currently costs on average (depending on the materials to be selected) € 1,600 (including VAT).
LARGE AUTONOMOUS
By installing such a simple autonomous photovoltaic system, you will be able to meet your basic lighting needs, the operation of an A + class fridge, the charging of a laptop and some small appliances.
The following appliances are supported in this house with their respective consumptions:
-10 Economy lamps 15W each, for 5 hours a day
-1 TV, for 5 hours a day
-1 Laptop, for 2 hours charging
-Electric devices up to 1000W per device for 30 days
-Fridge freezer with 24-hour operation
DESCRIPTION OF THE AUTONOMOUS SYSTEM
To meet the above energy requirements, an Autonomous Photovoltaic System was set up consisting of:
-3 Photovoltaic panels of nominal power 230 Wp (watt), total power 690 Wp
-1 inverter 2000W
-1 charge regulator
-2 Batteries 12V, 200 Ah
-Aluminum support system
-Colorization of tinned copper and UV protection
-Electrology (tables, etc.)
The above system now costs on average (depending on the materials to be selected) 2,900 € (including VAT).
Along with the above systems, to fully meet your needs, you can obtain simple cheap gas burning appliances (cooking, etc.).
