Para acometer esta instalación los propietarios han recibido información de posibles ayudas económicas por parte del instalador, que les informó de que a partir de 2017 el IVACE (Instituto Valenciano de Competitividad Empresarial) pondrá en marcha unas ayudas para autoconsumo. En el caso de particulares, se trata de un 20% de deducción sobre la inversión, lo que sin duda es un buen apoyo a estas instalaciones. Una de las características distintivas de esta instalación es la incorporación de una batería, que almacena la energía solar que no se utiliza, ya que normalmente la producción de las placas es mayor que el consumo de la vivienda. De esta manera, durante el día se utiliza directamente la energía solar producida por las placas, y por la noche también, sólo que en este caso, se utiliza la energía almacenada en la batería. Para suministrar este equipo los propietarios se han decidido por Ampere Energy. Son varias las razones que les han impulsado a decidirse por este fabricante valenciano, sin duda la cercanía física es una de ellas, dada la confianza que inspira la posibilidad de un contacto más directo con un distribuidor más cercano al cliente. Ampere Energy desarrolla y fabrica tanto la plataforma software y los sistemas completos en sus instalaciones en Valencia. De esta forma, es capaz de amoldarse rápidamente a las necesidades de sus clientes, permitiendo implementar baterías de acumulación llave en mano desde 3 kWh hasta 1 GWh, y para proyectos personalizados. El uso de componentes de calidad, como componentes de marcas reconocidas como LG o Ingeteam, también inclinó la balanza hacia la batería Ampere Energy. Ampere Energy utiliza baterías de ion de To undertake this installation, the owners obtained information regarding options for financial aid from the installer, who advised them that as from 2017 the IVACE (the Valencian Institute of Business Competition) will be making funding available for self-consumption. In the case of private individuals, this involves a 20% discount on the investment, undoubtedly a good incentive for such installations. One of the defining features of this installation is the incorporation of a battery that stores the unused solar power given that the solar panels’ output is usually greater than the domestic consumption. As such, the solar power produced by the panels is used directly during the day, whereas at night, it only uses the energy stored in the battery. The owners have selected Ampere Energy to supply this equipment. There are many reasons behind the choice of this Valencia-based manufacturer, but undoubtedly physical proximity is one factor as it gives them possibility of having a more direct contact with a distributor that is closer to the client. Ampere Energy develops and manufactures both the software platform and the complete systems at its Valencia premises. As such, it can quickly respond to the needs of its clients, developing turnkey accumulation batteries from 3 kWh to 1 GWh as well as implementing personalised projects. The use of quality components, including elements from well-known brands such as LG and Ingeteam, also tipped the balance in favour of the Ampere Energy battery. Ampere Energy uses latest generation li-ion batteries with LG cells, offering a high level of durability at a very competitive price. The capacity of its batteries adapts to the real needs of the client with outputs from 3 kWh offered by the Ampere Sphere and Ampere Compac, 6 kWh from Ampere Square and 12 kWh from Ampere Tower. However, the deciding factor was the fact that the batteries from Ampere Energy include the concept of smart energy purchase: when the moment comes to buy energy from the grid, the battery makes that purchase when energy is at its cheapest. The battery connects to the internet and has access to the weather forecast so that when it predicts cloudy days and low PV output, it can buy energy in advance. As such, it does not wait until it needs it but purchases energy when it is cheapest. Moreover, thanks to the Ampere Energy app it is possible to view the energy produced and/or AUTOCONSUMO DE ENERGÍA LIMPIA, CONTROL DE LA ENERGÍA Y AHORRO Pilar Salinas y Andrés Coronado ya lo tienen decidido: van a incluir una batería Ampere Energy en su nueva vivienda, un chalet en La Sella, junto a Jávea. Tras pensar en diferentes alternativas a la red eléctrica para suministrar energía a su nueva casa, Pilar y Andrés se dieron cuenta de que actualmente la manera más sostenible, eficiente, y a la vez rentable, es instalar modulos fotovoltaicos junto a una batería de almacenamiento. Andrés, ya tenía incluso planeada la instalación fotovoltaica, así que aumentándola un poco y añadiendo una batería, su uso será muchísimo más eficiente. SELF-CONSUMPTION OF CLEAN ENERGY, ENERGY CONTROL AND SAVING Pilar Salinas and Andrés Coronado have already made their decision: they are going to include an Ampere Energy battery in their new house, a chalet in La Sella, near Jávea. Having considered different alternatives to the electrical grid to supply energy to their new home, Pilar and Andrés realised that the most sustainable, efficient and even profitable format currently available is the installation of PV modules along with battery storage. Andrés had already planned the PV installation to make it even more efficient by expanding it a little and adding a battery.
