Photovoltaic system has covered half of my consumption in October.
Till 9. Oct I was heatingy whole house (100m2 floor size) with electricity only (heat pump + electric wires in the floor) to 21.5°C (70.7°F).
Yes, it is exceptionally warm autumn here. But still it's soo satisfying.
However it's not just the photovoltaic system:
- house isbe pretty well insulated
- I have heat pump with recuperation to keep warm in while wanting
- I optimize heating/pre-heating for both house and hot water based on prediction
- my wife is onboard and knows what to do and not to do to effectively use the solar gains (this is VERY important)
