VHS Lecture: Photovoltaics and Heat Pumps - The Private Energy Turnaround
08. December 2022 from 19:00 // Generate your own electricity through solar energy // Admission 6 Euro, reduced rate 5 Euro
Under the lecture title "Photovoltaics and heat pumps - the private energy turnaround" the VHS Bocholt-Rhede-Isselburg invites on Thursday, 08 December 2022, in the media center Bocholt. The speaker Michael Birkhan treats on this evening all topics around the current topic complex. Start is at 19 o'clock. Registration and place reservation immediately under www.vhs-bocholt.de requested.
Why should electricity from fossil, CO2-intensive energy sources still be used today when it is possible to generate electricity yourself through solar energy and thus save money? Anyone planning to implement the private energy turnaround with a photovoltaic system or a heat pump is confronted with many questions in advance. Accordingly, the aspects of the lecture are multifaceted.
What yields can be expected in the different seasons? Is a west or east facing installation worthwhile? Should the purchase of a local energy storage device (lithium-ion battery) be considered to increase self-power consumption? Can a PV system be intelligently coupled with a heat pump or electric car? Are there subsidy opportunities for heat pumps/photovoltaic systems? These and other questions will be the focus of the evening. In addition to the technical structure of a photovoltaic system, the current framework conditions in Germany and also the economic efficiency will be explained on the basis of different system sizes.
