Netherlands: Homeowner saves €450 with solar-powered heating

-

In the Netherlands, new feed-in fees introduced in August 2024 are significantly affecting solar system owners. One homeowner in southern Holland has demonstrated how to reduce the impact using solar-powered heating.

Solar-electric heating

A package for an almost fully solar-powered house

-

Elio offers planning, consulting and key components for solar-electric buildings. The overall concept for a highly independent energy supply in new and existing buildings is based on digitally controlled infrared heaters, a domestic hot water heat pump and photovoltaics.

My PV built a new production building in June 2023. This has increased capacities.
Supply shortages

My PV shortens delivery times for its solar electric heating technology

-

Many of My PV's products that were sold out in recent months are now available again. The expansion of production capacities is bearing fruit.

There are also a lot of projects planned in Europe. However, the Middle East actually tops the list.
Solar Industrial Heat Outlook

Global demand for solar process heat on the rise

-

Worldwide, 31 solar process heat plants will go into operation in the next few weeks. The suppliers' order books are also quite full.

This is how the facade element looks from behind: A solar fluid runs through the channels, which dissipates the collected solar heat via the main channels on the left and right sides.
Fraunhofer ISE

New development of a solar heat collector for facades

-

The structured facade elements collect solar heat and transfer it to the heat pump circuit. In this way, they can raise the flow temperature for heat pumps.

Power-to-heat

Solar heating rod that increases self-consumption

-

The Austrian company My-PV presents the AC Elwa 2 electric heating rod, which converts surplus solar energy into hot water.
