Battery storage capacity in Europe to grow fivefold

The capacity of European battery storage facilities is expected to increase approximately fivefold to more than 50 gigawatts (GW) by 2030, representing an investment of around €80 billion. This is according to a recent study by Aurora Energy Research.

Advantages of installing photovoltaics and its use

If you install your own photovoltaic power plant on your roof, you will reduce your energy consumption costs and you will not be so dependent on energy from suppliers, so you will no longer have to worry about fluctuating prices. In addition, with a battery system, you will be protected against possible power outages.

Photovoltaics with battery storage offer greater self-sufficiency

Photovoltaics are a very environmentally friendly solution that allows you to obtain heat, hot water, or charge your electric car. By storing excess energy in a storage battery, you also become partially self-sufficient in terms of energy and can even earn money.

Say NO to oversizing PV systems due to winter production declines

In winter, a photovoltaic power plant produces only about 20-25% of the electricity it produces in summer. However, oversizing photovoltaic systems just because of winter is definitely not optimal. You will not increase your winter production by that much, but in summer you will have to deal with huge surpluses. A large power plant will also be significantly more expensive due to the higher number of panels and the need for a more powerful inverter.

Shading of photovoltaic panels reduces the performance of photovoltaics. What can be done about it?

A chimney, a neighbor's tree, or even a building across the street. Shading of a single photovoltaic panel is enough to significantly reduce the performance of the entire system. Long-term shading of panels not only affects performance but can also cause panel degradation. The installation company should take this into account when designing a photovoltaic system. If shading cannot be avoided, there are solutions in the form of bypass diodes or power optimizers that help mitigate the effects.
