What is a solar electric house?
Family Smart shows in the video the advantages of the interaction of photovoltaic system, electric heating system and the household consumers. All 4 sectors (electricity for heating, hot water, household appliances and mobility) are connected and supplied electrically. The photovoltaic system makes the system even more efficient for the environment and the wallet. Because with a photovoltaic system on the roof and a high level of self-consumption, the concept of a solar-electric house makes CO2-free and future-proof living possible.
The photovoltaic electricity can be used to support general consumption in the household, to prepare hot water and to operate the electric heating system. If there is still a surplus - especially in the summer months - you can also charge your own e-car efficiently and cost-effectively.
Annual consideration as a key factor
The key factor here is that the system must be considered over the entire year - this is the only way to obtain an honest result.
The energy deficit from the winter months, when more energy is consumed than is produced by the PV system, is offset in the spring and summer by the high yields and low heat demand. Therefore, with a correctly dimensioned PV system and a well-insulated house, the annual analysis shows that, on balance, more electricity is produced than consumed by the sectors.
