Technical FAQs 4

Why should you choose a diesel generator based on a photovoltaic system?

Intelligent technology ensures optimum interaction between the photovoltaic system and the diesel generator. This guarantees that as much solar energy as possible is used and that the diesel generator operates at various degrees of utilisation at the most advantageous operating points.

Why should you integrate photovoltaics into diesel power systems?

Integrating photovoltaics into existing diesel power systems enables reductions in fuel costs and guarantees an efficient electricity supply. PV-diesel solutions offer independence from rising diesel prices and reduce operating- and maintenance costs, especially in remote areas far from the utility grid.

Why should you invest in a photovoltaic system?

Quick ROI – Due to the high savings potential, the investment in a photovoltaic system pays for itself after a short time. Reduce CO2 footprint – Generating solar power reduces your carbon footprint. Fuel costs make up the largest part of the cost of producing electricity using diesel generators.

Are solar generators better than diesel generators?

Hence, reliability is not an issue when it comes to solar powered gensets. Diesel generators, on the other hand, do not have this issue. But if there is a storm or any such disaster, the generators become useless. Thus, when looking at the investment point of view, solar generators win against the diesel generators.
