- Emission-free mobility: Good reasons for Solar system as a “filling station” for the e-car
- Family of 4 with electric car: Calculation example shows how much solar power necessary is
- electric car “fill up” with PV electricity vs. mains power: So much savings is included – information on the GHG premium
According to Survey by management and technology consultancy Bearingpointwhich the Dutch company published in the “Electromobility Trend Barometer 2022”. every third German will buy an electric car. Reasons are in addition to ecological aspects financial and tax benefits.
A survey by the energy industry association BDEW shows that e-mobility has finally arrived in Germany. A survey of e-car owners, also in the second half of last year, revealed: 98 percent would definitely buy an electric car again. E-mobility and photovoltaics are almost inextricably linked.
Independence from fossil fuels: Good reasons for solar systems & e-cars
Only by 100 percent green energy electric drives are climate-neutral. Compared to charging with electricity from the public electricity mix you save 70 percent CO with solar energy2 a. Climate protection is one of the main reasons given by the e-drivers surveyed in the BDEW survey for a renewed purchase decision.
But not only climate protection plays a role. Who his car with self-generated solar power refuels, is independent of external energy sources and therefore runs cheaper. With a solar system you reach one self-sufficiency of 30 percent, with power storage even up to 80 percent. Reading tip on zolar.de: “Mobility and photovoltaics – this is how you use the combination profitably“.

Photovoltaic system: High return through self-consumption
the electricity prices are 2022 compared to the previous year increased by 15.5 percent. The consulting company Prognos assumes that wholesale prices will continue to rise in 2023, in the worst case the limit of exceed EUR 500 per megawatt will. With your own solar system you make yourself regardless of rising electricity prices.
And a photovoltaic system is one investment in the future. A solar system usually lasts 30 years. Already after A system pays for itself in five to seven years without power storage, after 10 to 12 years with storage – especially if you a huge amount of generated electricity yourself. The basic rule is: the higher the self-consumption, the higher the return your PV. On electric car contributes to optimal utilization at. Haven’t found the right PV provider yet?

Family of 4 with an electric car: This is what the solar system should deliver
If you are planning a photovoltaic system, but don’t have an electric car yetyou should do that in your consumption planning consider. Because that depends energy required annually that you want your PV to deliver. If the vehicle mainly charged during the day with the directly generated electricity is to be used, you have to add this to the household electricity consumption. With an average annual mileage of 10,000 to 15,000 kilometers needs an electric car 2,000 to 3,000 kilowatt hours (kWh for short). On Four-person household consumes around 4,000 kWh per year. That means: You have to come with the car 6,000 to 7,000 kWh calculate. A family of four can meet this need in the summer months with a Solar system from 8 kilowatt peak (short kWp) cover.
Depending on the model, it takes Charging process between 4 and 8 hours. In this case, a small PV system is sufficient. If you want to charge the car mainly at night, you need one power storage. The rule of thumb applies: The storage should have a capacity of 1 kWh per 1,000 kWh to have. Want advice? the Experts from zolar know which ones individual sizing necessary is.

“Fill up” the e-car with PV power: Cheaper than petrol and diesel – and grid power
When you drive your electric car with self-generated solar power “tank up”, you drive over 46 percent cheaper than with electricity from the public grid. Compared to incinerators the “fuel” is gone 77 percent cheaper. This was the result of an evaluation by the online solar provider zolar. the ten best-selling electric cars of 2021 in Germany consume about 16 kWh per 100 kilometers. This is how the different energy sources perform:
- At the current ones Electricity generation costs of around 14 cents 100 kilometers cost 3.12 euros.
- For comparison: 100 kilometers with electricity from the grid cost 5.76 euros.
- extrapolated to 15,000 kilometers per year are the annual “fuel costs” with solar power in the tank at 468 euroswith mains power at 864 euros.
- Gasoline and diesel cause costs of more than 13 euros each per 100 kilometers, i.e. annually Cost of 1,950 euros.
In addition, you can use the so-called GHG premium earn cash. GHG stands for greenhouse gases. You sell your saved CO2 to petroleum companies who cannot save on the pollutants. So will the general Climate balance balanced. The sale takes place online through intermediaries. With PV providers such as zolar, customers can also easily process trades using a corresponding app. you can come with around 300 euros a year calculate.
