Photothermics: solar power control system allows reparco photovoltaic water heating and space heating

Exceed the current electricity consumers solar electricity production will be deactivated by the heating elements automatically reparco
Baier, the Energy Systems and Services GmbH (Todtenweis) presented a device to increase the consumption and usage of solar power.

"Reparco" measures the output of a solar photovoltaic system and the power consumption and activated from a surplus of at least 200 watts of power a heating element to heat generation, the company reported in a press release.


Current income is determined by means of a specially developed hardware and software


The solar power system is typically produced in three-phase design in Germany. The excess electricity will be using a specially developed hardware and software identified. This controls the assigned relay. In this way, nearly every performance can be realized.

Exceed the current consumer's current solar electricity production, heating elements automatically disabled. Way can be guaranteed not only to consume the primary consumers in the household self-produced electricity, but also that they have no power from the utility related to heat. The device is compatible with all types of renewable sources of energy and can also control other loads such as power storage, solar air conditioners, and gas stations, says Baier energy systems. Particularly efficient control work in conjunction with a heat pump.


reparco amortized according to the manufacturer within a very short time

By heating costs, the device amortisiere within a very short time, and CO2 emissions will be reduced significantly. As with solar thermal systems, the boiler can be switched off during the summer months. Another advantage is that the homeowner will need no room for thermal collectors.

Several prototype systems have demonstrated the functionality and the cost-benefit factor of reparco already. The sale started in July. This device makes the decision to purchase a photovoltaic system under particular consideration of the new feed-in tariffs remain lucrative for homeowners, says the press release.
