Unfortunately, my house is not yet on the map of the proposed calculator (as of 2022).
I will go with one meter :-)
But another question arises for me:
Instead of 22 modules, I could now go for 24 modules with 455 each heat pump. (then approx. 11 kWp)
With the orientation of the house, as can be seen in the picture above -> Does it make sense to place, for example, 3 rows of 6 modules on the "south side" and 2 rows of 3 modules on the back?
Already from 3 pm today we had full sun on the other side until the evening..
Or is it better to fully place on the side that has full irradiation between 8/9 am and 3 pm?
I am still undecided.
As of now, it should not be expanded with more modules.
Hello everyone! The photovoltaic topic has now caught me too. I ordered 22 modules (10 kWp) including storage (10 kW).
1) I would like to ask for an assessment whether it would make sense to also install modules on the back of the house due to the roof orientation (see photo for the orientation).
The sun only reaches there in the afternoon, the intended roof gets a lot from the south, so the storage is well filled. Does it even make sense to also utilize the evening sun? I do not yet see the added value or if the yield justifies the effort. Especially since more direct irradiation on the side only occurs from afternoon to evening.
We have the following consumption:
Air heat pump (water + heating): 3,300
Household: 2,600
In the future, an electric car is certainly conceivable.
2) Currently we still have two meters (heat pump electricity at 22.67 cents / 8.15 € basic fee / household electricity at 30.49 cents / 13.84 € basic fee)
Does it still make sense to operate with two meters with our consumption? (Extra cost of cascade connection by electrician 250 € + further monthly basic fee of approx. 120 € per year)
How did you decide?
Thank you all!
