/PRCWT/Guangzhou, August 29, 2023——In the context of the net zero goal, in the past two years, the European photovoltaic market has developed rapidly, but due to the lack of human resources and other factors, some users who want to install photovoltaic systems even need to wait for months to wait for the installer to install the system and connect to the grid. In this context, balcony photovoltaic, as an emerging photovoltaic application scenario, is growing at a rapid rate and is widely used in Europe and other places.
Policy-oriented, driving development
On June 28 this year, the German BMWK(Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Operations) issued a draft Solarpaketl, revising the "Renewable Energy Law" and the "Energy Industry Law", which clearly raised the balcony photovoltaic approval exemption power from 600W to 800W, and cancelled the need to install two-way meters first. The draft is currently at the hearing stage and will be approved by the Federal Cabinet in the summer before going to the Bundestag for discussion. The introduction of the draft will further promote the development of the balcony photovoltaic market and promote more users to install their own balcony photovoltaic system in a DIY way.
Solar photovoltaic compared to the traditional household and industrial and commercial photovoltaic market has an essential difference, balcony photovoltaic facing the direct population is the end user, the system no longer requires professional installation personnel to install operation and maintenance. The appearance of balcony photovoltaic is a "Game changer" for the entire photovoltaic industry, which subverts the previous application scenarios, sales models and use and installation applications of photovoltaic power stations, making photovoltaic systems like household appliances and become part of the family.
Significant advantages, micro inverse empowerment
Balcony photovoltaic, as the name suggests, refers to a small photovoltaic power generation system installed on a balcony or terrace, which is generally composed of 1 to 2 photovoltaic modules, micro-inverters, brackets and a number of cables. Its application advantages mainly have the following three points:
Easy to install: The composition of the balcony photovoltaic system is simple, and even ordinary people with no experience can install themselves in a short time, saving the high cost of system installation.
Convenient grid-connection: Thanks to the policy support, the grid-connection of the balcony photovoltaic system only needs to connect the AC cable plug to the home socket, which can be easily connected to the grid to achieve power generation income.
The benefits are significant: the balcony PV system has a small initial investment and can receive installation subsidies. The power generated by the system can reduce the high household electricity expenditure, its economic benefits are significant, and the system recovery cycle is short.
However, due to the space limitation of the balcony scene, there are some restrictions on the selection and installation of the equipment, and the micro-inverter has become the "only solution" for such balcony application scenarios. Small size, light weight, plug and play, can be installed on the support on the back of the component or suspended on the wall of the balcony, greatly saving the installation space, will not affect the family living and activity range.
Photovoltaic industry's "home appliances"
Wi-Fi+ Bluetooth dual communication mode micro inverter EZ1
Renergy quickly responds to market demand, anchors user pain points, and specially creates micro-inverter EZ1 series products for balcony photovoltaic systems. EZ1 product positioning is fully oriented to end users, so compared with electrical equipment, it is more like a household appliance, users can DIY installation and use, it not only convenient for users' lives, improve the quality of life, but also represents a green, low-carbon attitude to life.
Micro-inverter EZ1 has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth dual communication mode, the user does not need a special gateway device, can directly connect to the mobile phone or network, to check the system's power generation, convenient system operation and maintenance. At the same time, the EZ1 installation is extremely convenient, plug and play, its output port through the AC cable plug, can be connected to the mains outlet, to achieve grid-connected power generation, the entire micro-reverse installation process takes less than 5 minutes.
In addition,EZ1 series products as the world's first input current can reach 20A Wi-Fi version of the micro inverter, its maximum output power of 960W, can be perfectly adapted to 182, 210 high-power components. The product is designed in parallel circuit, the system voltage is less than 60V; 2 input channels, independent MPPT function, component power generation does not affect each other; IP67 protection grade, design life of up to 25 years; Fanless design, zero noise pollution, anti-electromagnetic interference, up to the level of household appliances; Through the operation and maintenance software, users can see the power generation of each component, making the balcony photovoltaic system more intelligent and efficient.
The application of balcony photovoltaic makes household photovoltaic no longer limited to users with single-family houses, so that more users such as apartment buildings can also use clean green photovoltaic power. It is believed that with the blessing of the policy and the progress of technology, the balcony photovoltaic market will be further expanded in Europe and even the world, and help photovoltaic really enter thousands of households.
