Hallo zusammen, ich bin gerade auf der Suche nach einem #balkonkraftwerk . Hat hier jemand Erfahrung mit dem Anbieter hier:
Another record solar month in May. Keep it coming.

After decades of solar PV deployment, the world crossed the 1 TW (a million MW) line in 2022. Just two years later, after adding 0.6 TW in 2024, we already crossed the 2 TW mark too!

A nice round 27kWh of electricity generated today, a record for the year so far.
Solaranlagen kennen wir vor allem als Dachanlage auf den Häusern von Gutverdienenden - oft im Dreiklang mit E-Auto und Wärmepumpe.
Ein Projekt in Bo/Sierra Leone zeigt, dass PV auch den Ärmsten der Armen helfen kann. Dort sichert nun eine PV-Anlage den Strom für Brutkästen, Sauerstoff und Licht für Frühgeborene (Diesel war zu teuer). Und rettet damit buchstäblich Leben. Sehenswerter Bericht:
Many institutions and companies don’t invest in solar pv because they think it will take decades to recover the cost…but really they are missing a trick.
#Norwich University of the Arts have just had a big install (186 panels) that is projected to pay for itself within just 7 years.

It's April 12th and I have now exported more electricity than I did for the whole of March.
Autumn is absolutely the best time of year.
Our tiny 1.5kW Solar system is currently supplying pretty much all of the power we're using at home for a good portion of the morning.
A combination of clear sunny skies, and lower temperatures (no need for aircon) has provided this result.
(once we get the bigger solar and battery installed, this should be the case for more of the year)
Overseas investors play the long game on solar energy development in the US.

It's nice to be back running appliances during the day where #solarpv means it's free.
