Photovoltaics is the technology that converts solar energy into electrical energy. This is done using solar cells, which are used in solar panels.
Solar cells are made of semiconductor materials such as silicon. When sunlight hits these cells, an electric field is generated inside the cell, which sets electrons in motion. This movement generates direct current (DC), which is then converted into alternating current (AC) for use in homes and businesses.
By opting for photovoltaics, you are using a renewable energy source and helping to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. You can significantly reduce your energy costs and by operating a PV system you reduce your environmental impact.
The payback period of a photovoltaic system depends on various factors, including the size of the system, the solar radiation at the location, the cost of installation and local government incentives or subsidy programs. As a rule, the payback period is between 7 and 9 years.
Photovoltaic systems require only minimal maintenance. We recommend regular (at least annual) cleaning of the modules, checking of the cabling and inspection of the system in order to achieve maximum efficiency. Of course, maintenance and cleaning also help to extend the service life of your system.
Yes, photovoltaics can generate electricity even in cloudy weather, although the output can vary depending on the intensity of the sunlight. Modern photovoltaic cells are also able to utilize diffuse light, which means that they can also produce electricity on cloudy days, albeit to a lesser extent.
In principle, a PV system is of interest to anyone who values sustainable energy generation, who wants to live self-sufficiently or who wants to minimize their energy costs on their business premises by generating their own energy. Profitability depends on many factors, but it can be said that the payback period for an average single-family home is 7 years. Meanwhile, the design factor of PV systems also plays a major role. With today's modules, not only high-quality but also visually appealing building-integrated PV solutions can now be realized.
By 2026, the first experience and competence center with an e-charging park in the Alps-Adriatic region will be built on the site of a former service station. Partners from various sectors, such as e-mobility & charging technology as well as architects and planners, are settling here to exchange knowledge and multiply expertise.
