Zeig deine PV #85: Erfahrung schlägt Theorie: Wie dieses Energiesystem über Jahre gewachsen ist!

In episode #85 of our series "Show off your solar panels and your energy concept," we're in the Leer district of Lower Saxony—more precisely, in East Frisia—visiting Constanze and Alwin. They not only contributed a significant amount of their own labor to the construction of their house, but also focused on assembling and installing as much as possible themselves when it came to the energy transition. T-shirts, mugs, and more are available in our shop. Feel free to stop by :-) https://gewaltignachhaltig.myspreadsh...

Our PV system: 20.56 kWp, 44 x IBC Polysol 270/285 Wp modules, mounted at a 10° angle, east-west facing (-65°/115°) / 11 x Astronergy 405 Wp modules, east facing (-65°) / 10 x Astronergy 405 Wp modules, south facing (25°) - SMA STP SE 10.0 + STP 6.0 inverters - SMA Home Storage 13.1 kWh battery - 15% backup power reserve - SMA eCharger 22 - PV yield: 615 kWh/kWp Our balcony power system: 1.78 kWp, 4 x IBC modules, 445 Wp modules, mounted at a 90° angle on the south-east facing facade (-65°) - 8 kWh battery storage - 800 W inverter Our electric car: Tesla Model 3 Performance with an annual mileage of 15,000 km, of which 3,000 km are used for... Long-distance travel with charging stops. Our heating system: Vaillant arotherm plus VWL 75/6 A heat pump – heating output up to 7 kW – electrical output up to 3.2 kW – settings: heating curve 0.5, base temperature 21 degrees – gas consumption to date approx. 24,000 kWh. Our house: atrium bungalow built in 1983, unrenovated – 120 m² ground floor with underfloor heating – 40 m² basement, uninsulated and unheated – exterior wall insulation (42 cm sand-lime brick) 10 cm – flat roof insulation 15 cm – double-glazed wooden windows from 1983 – 2-person household – living room temperature: 19-20°C – other room temperature: 17-18°C – basement temperature: 18-19°C. Calculated heating load: 8 kW. Building energy demand: 160 kWh*m²/a The current costs of the components of our private energy transition are as follows: PV system with storage and wallbox: €25,000 + 1% annual operating costs. Balcony power plant: €3,000. The electric car is cost-neutral compared to a similar combustion engine vehicle in terms of purchase and maintenance, except for fuel costs. The heat pump cost €8,500 more after a 40% subsidy. Total: €41,500 plus any financing interest.
