This document discusses solar energy and solar self-consumption. It begins by covering energy sources in general before focusing on renewable vs non-renewable sources. Solar energy harnesses the sun's rays and works through photovoltaic technologies. Solar self-consumption uses on-site PV generation to meet a consumer's energy needs. The document then introduces the archeliosTM Calc software, which allows for calculation, sizing and control of self-consumption PV installations.

3. Types of energy Self consumption
Energy production models are based on two types of sources: Non-renewableRenewable Self consumption
N O N - R E N E W A B L E Self consumption
The non- renewable sources of energy are not safe and sustainable choices. In fact, apart from being finite on the earth, are also a serious threat to both humans’ health and planet survival. Self consumption
Traditionally, energy models have been mainly dominated by fossil fuels such as: Self consumption
These natural resources are a major source of power for a vast amount of industries, but they are in limited supply and are not safe and sustainable choices. Self consumption
R E N E W A B L E Self consumption
Renewable energy is produced from sources which are naturally replenishing but flow-limited. Self consumption
There are many forms of renewable energy, such as: Self consumption
4. Negative effects of non-renewable energies Self consumption
Limited supply Water supply-stress Thermal pollution Fossil fuel and coal waste Oil and gas waste water Acid rain Water pollution Greenhouse gases Air pollution Health Human safety Harm the biodiversity and the ecosystem Self consumption
5. Benefits from renewable energies Self consumption
Reduce greenhouse gas emission Diversify the energy supply Energy independence Economic development New specialized professional roles Self consumption
6. What is solar energy and how does it work? Self consumption
Solar power is the power obtained by harnessing the energy of the sun's rays. Self consumption
Solar photovoltaic technologies are an efficient solution for reaching the goal to decarbonize the power sector. In fact, fostered by the emerging of clean energy production and consumption paradigms, solar photovoltaic energy deployment has been evolving. Self consumption
7. What is solar self-consumption? Self consumption
Self consumption A solar self-consumption installation uses the PV electricity generated on-site to meet the energy needs of the consumer while minimizing or excluding the use of electricity from the utility grid.
It is an optimal choice for home energy efficiency as it allows relevant savings. Self consumption
The consumption will depend on several factors such as: the number of electrical appliances used the power of photovoltaic devices the number of households weather conditions Self consumption
Rooftop PV deployment has faced several challenges They can be considered a disruptive technology as can be distributed at many points in the electrical grid rather than concentrated to a few large plants, can be located at the user side of the electricity meter, and produce electricity intermittently only when the sun shines. Self consumption
Historically, high costs of PV-generated electricity have been a barrier to its development. But nowadays things are changing. Many consumers have, in fact, started to invest in the solar PV self- consumption systems. The main driver is economical. Self consumption
The prices of PV and battery energy storage systems are, in fact, more competitive than the past. Self consumption
EU governments are also working on creating a clear regulatory framework for household self-consumption. Self consumption
Recently, EU member states have reached a consensus regarding the prohibition of discriminatory taxes for self- produced energy for those systems of up to 30 kW capacity. Self consumption
The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (2018/844/EC) and the increasing requirements for net-zero energy buildings is another driver. Last but not least Self consumption
new residential buildings are constructed per year. 1.5M According to the Energy Innovation Europe, it is estimated that approximately 2.5M And also, there are undergo Self consumption
The study believes that adding only 10m2 PV to each project would potentially add 5.7GW Self consumption
With commercial buildings even more dynamic and the addition of retrofitting existing buildings the potential for PV to contribute significantly to the Paris Goals and the local economies are clearly viable. Self consumption
8. Introducing archelios™ Calc Self consumption
is a complete software solution for the calculation, sizing, and control of photovoltaic installations connected to the public grid. Self consumption
The latest version of the software comes with the newest features for the solar PV self-consumption market. Self consumption
now comes with a new “self-consumption distribution board” view in the connection and location type menu. The user will be able to select the self-consumption option in the interface and to manage the electrical parameters of the switchboard on which the installation is connected. Self consumption
The newest version of the solar calculation software also presents a new interface design. The environment graphical representation has been updated with new colors and more modern icon design to improve interactivity. Self consumption
