ENERGY SAVING

THE TRUTH ABOUT PHOTOVOLTAIC ENERGY

It is very common when we ask for a quote to set up a photovoltaic installation that everything is reduced to choosing a quote from all the options that are proposed to me .... The main mistake is to think that it is always profitable from an economic point of view, to put solar panels on my house, community of neighbours or my business.

According to a study by the consulting firm Opportunity One, more than 50% of the solar installations that are installed in Spain are not economically profitable. The main reasons are:

- A study is not carried out with the data of the hourly consumption curve of the property, to see if it adapts to the hourly curve of the Sun.

- The study is presented to the client, informing them of the electricity generation capacity of the installation, without taking into account whether this electricity is going to be used at the time it is generated.

- The installation of batteries to store the electricity generated is not taken into account, so that we are losing generation capacity.

- The price of the KW that we dump to the public grid, for not being used in our home, business, does not compensate the economic investment made.

Therefore, at OGHAM, we recommend our clients to put themselves in the hands of an independent company, whose main task is, before making a decision, to know if the investment I have to make, will be amortized in the years of life of the solar installation.
