Solar energy - safe & low-cost power supply

While many areas with unstable grids primarily use diesel generators to maintain the energy supply, photovoltaics are becoming increasingly accepted as a low-cost alternative. Solar energy is a stable and inexpensive resource which, in combination with storage solutions, makes sense not only economically but also in terms of CO2 balances.

Advantages of solar backup systems

  • Security of supply – A solar backup system ensures a secure energy supply even in the event of an unstable power supply or grid failure.
  • Stable energy costs – With a photovoltaic system, there are no running costs, which often increase constantly. They therefore guarantee stable costs over the entire service life of the system.
  • No noise pollution or unpleasant odours – Unlike a diesel generator, photovoltaic systems are quiet and clean.
  • Improve the CO2 balance – With a sustainable energy supply, harmful emissions are reduced and environmental regulations can be met.

Security of supply through photovoltaics

A stand-alone photovoltaic system produces electricity independently of the public grid. In the event of a power failure, the system automatically decouples itself from the grid and creates its own, self-contained network (MicroGrid).

This means that the supply of power can be guaranteed even without other components, such as a diesel generator.

The convenient alternative to the diesel generator

Stand-alone photovoltaic systems have a significant advantage over diesel-powered emergency power generators: they generate clean, odourless electricity, quietly. 

Particularly in remote hotel complexes and communities, personal comfort and sustainability play a major role in addition to security of supply. A supply of solar power can significantly reduce both odour and noise pollution and ultimately CO2 emissions. 

How a solar backup system works

A saving of 80,000 euros in diesel in 20 years

Grid parity of the PV energy is set to be achieved faster than anticipated due to high diesel costs in Sachs Harbour. Consequently, they will have a very low payback time of less than six years, following which the system will be paid off, enabling the residents of Sachs Harbour to save more than 80,000 euros in diesel costs in the first 20 years.
