Installation of PV panels at the headquarters of Oikokiklios in Ritsona

OIKOKIKLIOS PROCEEDED IN INSTALLATION OF 55 KW PHOTOVOLTAIC PANELS ON THE ROOF OF ITS HEADQUARTERS IN VARIKO RITSONAS WITH A VIEW TO IMPROVING ITS ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPRINT.

Installing systems can lead to significant savings in energy, financial resources and helps the electricity grid as well as the environment. Here are some ways in which this is achieved:

1. Lower electricity bills: Generating electricity through photovoltaics can reduce or even eliminate electricity bills.
2. Subsidy and incentives: Many governments and organizations offer subsidies and tax breaks for the installation of photovoltaics, thereby reducing the initial investment cost.
3. Selling excess energy: In many areas, the excess electricity generated is sold back to the grid.
4. Long term performance: Although the initial installation cost can be high, the long-term energy saving and reduced bills can cover this cost in a few years.
5. Autonomy and security: Power generation reduces your dependence on traditional energy suppliers and offers greater security in the event of power outages.

Energy saving through PV depends on a number of factors, including location, sun exposure, system efficiency and energy consumption. However, in general, photovoltaics are an efficient and environmentally friendly option for saving energy and reducing energy costs.

Net metering is a system that allows owners of photovoltaic systems to sell the excess electricity they produce back to the grid and receive credits for it. These credits can be used to offset the cost of the electricity they use when their system is not producing enough power, such as during the night or on cloudy days.
