On average, a 120 m2 house using an air-to-water heat pump for home heating requires about 6,000 - 8,000 kWh of electricity per season.
By installing a 10kW solar power plant, a 12kWh battery, an electric car charging station and an air-to-water heat pump, you can produce 10,000kWh of electricity per year. This amount of electricity produced is enough to heat a house for an entire season, or you can drive 55,555 km in an electric car with a battery capacity of 64 kWh.
It is advisable to charge a discharged electric vehicle battery from a solar power plant or when the price of electricity is low. Installing an additional battery will make this process even more efficient: by purchasing electricity with an exchange plan, at a time when the price of electricity is low. This way, on average, you can save up to 80% on electricity.
Possible installation options for a solar power plant
The solar power plant can be installed traditionally on the roof of the house or on the ground, next to the house. The battery and charging station can be installed in the garage or outdoors, after assessing the technical capabilities and the customer's wishes.
There are other, non-standard solutions, such as installing a carport with integrated solar panels and installing a charging station in the carport. This is a slightly more expensive solution, but it can be an alternative to a garage.
Installing solar power plants, electric vehicle charging stations, and air-to-water heat pumps is our future. Together we can get there faster!
