100% self-consumption for PV systems?!

Published · last revised

On sunny days it often happens that the battery is charged, your consumption is low and the electric car is not at home during the day. From midday onwards, a large part of your PV production flows back into the grid — and the utilities are crediting less and less for exactly that.

The solution is higher self-consumption. But instead of simply consuming energy to get rid of it (aka wasting it), the surplus energy should be used sensibly to generate value. This is exactly where the RY3T Nova comes in — the Swiss answer to declining feed-in tariffs: a Bitcoin heating system that converts surplus solar power into heat and money.

RY3T NOVA — when the battery is full, NOVA starts workingA Swiss development that picks up exactly at that point: it turns the surplus that would otherwise go to the grid at a low feed-in tariff into usable return — mobile, modular, and retrofittable. Details are at nova.ry3t.com.

Disclosure: The owner of Giovanoli Gebäudetechnik GmbH holds an interest in RY3T, and we receive compensation if you sign up through the link above. We say so because it may affect how you read this article. It has no effect on our design work: we take no commissions on design contracts, and equipment selection always follows the project — including when a different solution fits better.
