New solar technology means 30m homes in Europe could be energy independent by 2050
The potential for energy storage is massively increasing the number of households that can benefit from solar panels
A new report from researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany has revealed that over 50% of the 41 million homes in Europe could have been self-sufficient in 2020 by using solar energy sources and storing it batteries.
Further, they reported that three quarters of all European homes could meet all their energy needs with solar panels on their roofs by 2050.
Expert European solar panel installers Ecosolarspain can attest to the popularity of customers taking advantage of the potential of solar energy to install photovoltaic panels on their properties.
Just recently, they finished installing solar panels and storage batteries for the Heikendorf City Hall building in Germany.
Part of the attraction of solar energy as a renewable source of home power is that new solar technology like Soltaro batteries are allowing households to create and store their own energy while remaining on the grid and feeding excess energy back into the grid as needed.
Energy economics researcher at the Karlsruhe Institute study, Max Kleinebrahm, said, “Our results show that even in 2050 going off-grid won’t be the most economic choice, but it could make sense to invest in these kinds of self-sufficient buildings if you are willing to pay more for self-sufficiency.”
He continued: “It would be less efficient to have a large number of households abandoning the grid rather than supporting it.”
Lead researcher Felix Creutzig said the falling costs of solar energy, which Berlin-based Mercator Research Institute on Global Commons and Climate Change (MCC) recently found had fallen by 90% in the last 10 years, could mean that the world’s entire energy consumption in 2050 could be “completely and cost-effectively covered by solar technology and other renewables”.
