Independence from using your own power
Self-generated electricity pays off
Besides actively protecting the environment, operating your own rooftop solar power system also gives you independence from rising electricity prices and power failures. First and foremost, using your own solar power will significantly reduce your electricity bill and, thanks to the right storage solutions, you can use your own power even when the sun doesn’t shine.
Your own power consumption (off-grid) pays off

Electricity prices are steadily rising and the feed-in tariff for a kilowatt hour of electricity is already less than you pay for the mains power supply. The feed-in tariff is set to fall further and due to expire in the next few years. Rising electricity prices are, however, an absolute certainty. Using self-generated power oneself and not feeding it into the public grid is already an advantage. To make this possible, solar power needs to be distributed and stored intelligently.
Most of the power you produce yourself is normally used in the mornings and evenings when the sun does not shine much. Solar energy is, however, generated during the day. For the same reason, cost-effective self-generated energy is normally fed into the grid during the day, and in the mornings and evenings you find yourself using expensive electricity sourced from the same grid.
Boosting your own power consumption intelligently
In principle, there are two options for boosting your own power consumption: firstly by using solar power when it is available, by switching on electrical equipment such as washing machines or dishwashers for instance, which effectively changes user patterns, and secondly by storing surplus power in batteries for subsequent usage.
With Phoenix Solar AG’s qualitatively high-end products, you can boost your own power consumption by as much as 70%, which will make you even more independent of rising electricity prices. Here you will learn more about our solutions for your own power consumption.
