RE: PV plant installation in Germay | Solaranlagen Installation in D
thank´s for the warm welcome @ubongudofot,
yes for sure it was (and still is) a pretty amazing time with these installations and that work in the energy business at all.
By the way, where there anything like back ups on this system or they were just sustaining in the sun alone...?
to answer your question, back in the days of 2010 there was no need for a back up system this was way before the turmoil in Ukraine and the energy crisis which brings the need for these measures to Germany.
We also got pretty good feed in tarifs for such installations when we connect the plants directly to the national grid what we did in this case, it was about 21 €-Cent per kWh fed in, not as good as we had it in Spain or in italy where we had in the best form 62 €-Cent and 41 €-Cent per kWh.
Today the plant in Germany on the rooftop of the school is having 5 more years to go with the old contracting scheme and after that they will be forced to consume all the generated energy by themself or to market it on the free market to very bad conditions, but this plant is already paid off complete and running in very positive numbers, so let´s say it was a very good idea to talk to these peeps and give them the impulse not only to think about using their rooftop cleverly but moreover bring them to opt out for gaining additional money out of the most reliabal energy source on this planet the sun.
But hey what did I say, you and your people over there have lots more of that gift on hand (like me here in the south of Spain).
Good to know you've had experience in the energy sector.
I´ve been there nearly my entire work life first like I mentioned in the nuclear business, than in the PV sector and since the early 2000´s also in the field of Hydrogen development solutions and designing of electrolyser plants in combination with PV or Windfarms.
That's such a great profile you have there in the field of renewable energy! I bet, it might take me some years to gather those experiences. But the good thing is - I am working towards it as an installer.
Yes, we're fortunate to have an abundance of sunlight in Africa, and it's important we make good use of it. The only problem is that solar over here is very expensive.
I've made series of research about Windfarms..., it's not comon here...

I´m sure you will make your way in that field, you will learn the skills you actually not have with the ongoing work ;)
oh yes I know, its about the tarifs on top of the normal prices, the longer transport routes, and the lack of modul factories in Africa, but believe this will change very soon with the uprising of the BRICS nations where two of the major PV-Module producer in the world are in, as there are the Chinese and the Indians the two nations that together produce more than 3 quarter of the worlds PV-Panels. And as they opt out for new business oportunities they will will for sure seek for places over there in Africa to built some Mega-factories because of the cheap labor cost and the not so heavy regulated framework for erecting such a facility and with such a step there would be no more huge tarifs, no huge transportation costs in summary much cheaper products for you, your customers and the other companies who deal with that kind of stuff -a big win for all-

Thank you so much. I am so passionate about renewable energy and it looks like I might invest my life savings in this sector.
I am still sorting out for some great ideas on how I can grow and how I can improve the health of my solar business.
You definitely have a lot of knowledge about this! This is true.., we don't have any manufacturing companies here in Nigeria. I'm not sure if there is any place in Africa.
We buy from China, India and Canada. But majorly from China and India.
When the top guys buys these components, they determine the prices we sell in our end.
I am seriously waiting for a time were solar manufacturing companies would be everywhere Africa. Even if it's not in Nigeria, I can always travel to such country for business deals, hence it's in Africa.
As we speak, some Indian companies are already here, but they are not producing. They import from their country and sell it here. It would make a lot of sense if they can manufacture it here.
This sounds like a good deal.

you´re welcome ;)
aaah, don´t do it, don´t risk more than half of it, so if the journey leads to some kind of accident you at least have the other half to build up another source of income for you and your family!
Use friends and family and existing happy buyers of your goods to grow your business incentivize them with a small portion from your earnings from a deal, this will make your business growing at a much faster pace ;)
that´s quite normal, as a small business you wont get the same prices as a huge company who orders regulary thousands of panels, wires and inverters.
you will see this happen in a short period of time, I´m quite sure about. We had this in Europe too, first we had some manufactoring companies in Germany the major players but as they were rising the Chinese buyed the manufacturing companies for the production equipmnet and then hired some German engeneers so that they can learn how to do the processing of all, the learned fast and now they are the number one and in Germany there is no Panel producer left, they also have to import the panels from Japan, China, India and the US.
On th eother hand there are actually panel manufacturer in Sicily (Italy) and some again in Spain all joint ventures with Chinese or Indian companies. The production sites will come automatically near to the places where the highest demand is, its easier to manage a production plant in a foreign country, and even more tax effective and cost saving, than shipping all the modules around the world and wasting tons of fuel.
