Introduction Did you know? Good reasons to choose a photovoltaic system from Viessmann A module surface area of 450 x 450 km would be sufficient to cover the power demand of the entire world. Consequently, our sun not only provides energy in abundance – it is also an environmentally responsible source of energy. Better still – the power it delivers is free. Photovoltaics, i.e. obtaining electrical power directly from solar energy, is an elegant and reliable option. Photovoltaic systems generate energy during the day – precisely when demand is higher. In order to produce roughly the amount...

Photovoltaics 8/9 VITOVOLT Power from the sun. A 10 m2 area of solar cells is sufficient to cover the average power consumption of one person. Feed-in remuneration If you produce your own power, you can receive a guaranteed remuneration from your power supply utility over 20 years. This is governed by the Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) [Germany], which states that energy providers are obliged to accept the renewable power and export it to their grid. Power for your own consumption continues to be drawn from your local power supply utility at the usual tariff. The feed-in remuneration...
