Installation of a solar power plant in Kyiv on a turnkey basis

The use of solar energy by private households and organizations is no longer a curiosity. Ukraine is one of the countries in which alternative energy is steadily developing year by year. Despite the location of Kyiv in the north of Ukraine, in the capital and in the region there is a sufficient number of sunny days and a suitable azimuth of the sun for the station to work effectively. Installing solar panels in Kyiv is one of the promising options for investing in your own future.

Installation of solar panels in Kyiv - features of registration and connection of the capital SES

Solar installation companies offer different options for completing systems, depending on the required power and tasks. SUNSAY Energy designs PV stations based on innovative electrical equipment.

Installing a solar power plant on the territory of an enterprise or private household opens up the following opportunities:

• Autonomy of energy consumption, especially in areas with frequent rolling blackouts.
• Ensuring a stable electrical signal without power surges.
• Significant savings on utility bills.
• Implementation of the principle of environmentally friendly nature management, sustainable development and slowing down global warming.

The development and launch of the project requires serious financial investments, but the investments return after 4-5 years and turn into a stable profit.

Options for installing a solar power plant in Kyiv

A solar station is a well-functioning system, the main elements of which are photovoltaic cells and an inverter. Additionally, the SES is equipped with switching materials, a remote monitoring system, and protective equipment. Batteries may also be present in certain types of stations.

Installation of solar panels in Kyiv is possible in the following options:

• Autonomous .
  The system operates without being tied to a stationary power grid. Suitable for cottages, small businesses, the main energy consumption of which falls on daylight hours. Batteries that supplement the inverter and PV modules are responsible for power supply at night and in case of worsening weather conditions, but for a limited period of time.
  The company's specialists will help you correctly calculate the capacity of the battery assembly so that the station provides coverage for the basic vital needs of homeownership after dark.
• Network .
  Turnkey solar power plants in Kyiv in this format can bring additional income to their owners when connected to the Green Tariff program. The system works in tandem with a stationary power grid, receiving the missing power at night and on cloudy days. If during the daytime the station generates capacities that exceed its own needs, the "feed-in tariff" allows the transfer of energy to the state at an inflated price. Only solar power plants with a capacity of up to 30 kW can join the program.
• Hybrid .
  SES is equipped with rechargeable batteries and is connected to a stationary power grid. Both autonomous operation of the station and the exchange of energy flows with state networks are possible. The battery node turns the station into a backup source of electrical signal in case of emergencies when the general network temporarily fails.

SES for production require special attention. They are usually designed as an independent system. The procedure for connecting to the "green tariff" for commercial structures is associated with a number of complex legal issues. But even solar power plants operating to cover their own needs are considered as a cost-effective investment. Solar stations in Kyiv, installed on the territory of offices, industrial enterprises, can reduce electricity costs by more than 50%, especially during the daytime operation of production.

What you need to know about the commissioning of the capital SES?

Solar power plants are mounted on different surfaces - roofs, facades, ground structures. The installation is preceded by measurements, execution and approval of project documentation, budgeting, purchase of basic equipment and components.

Installation of solar panels in Kyiv is carried out taking into account the following nuances:

• For private households, the installation of photomodules is recommended only on the elements of the roof of residential buildings. SUNSAY Energy specialists immediately take into account this nuance, offering types of photomodules and fixtures suitable for a particular type of roof.
• To install solar panels in Kyiv under the feed-in tariff program, you need to go through the registration procedure through the grid distribution operator DTEK and the electricity supplier YASNO.
  The scope of DTEK's activities is the coordination of the connection power to the house, the installation of the meter, and the technical verification of the solar power plant.
  YASNO's area of responsibility is drawing up a contract for the purchase / sale of electricity under the terms of the program.

Solar power plants in Kyiv are issued in the presence of the following package of documents:

• technical passport for private household;
• identification code and passport of the SES owner;
• a document on the ownership of the house and land with extracts of property rights from the state register;
• distribution point passport issued by DTEK;
• a certificate from the bank indicating the details of the bank account.

The company's specialists provide support at all stages of paperwork, so that the registration procedure takes place in the shortest possible time.

Proper station placement is a key component of high system performance

When planning to buy a solar power plant in Kyiv, you need to take into account the features of the area and the characteristics of the surface for photomodules. The following details are important:

• The optimal location for placing photovoltaic cells is the south side of the roof.
• The panels are placed at right angles to the solar flux. If necessary, a special frame is used to minimize energy losses.
  Movable structures can be used to adjust the slope of the panels depending on the season.
• Shading is the reason for the decrease in the efficiency of a solar station. On the sunny side near the panels, the presence of tall buildings or trees is undesirable. If the fall of the shadow on the blocks is unavoidable, solar panels installation companies use special equipment - MPPT trackers to change the performance of specific photomodules.

Terms of implementation and cost of the project

The price of turnkey solar panels and the timing of putting the station into operation depend, first of all, on the scale of the project. The number of photomodules is determined by the total capacity of the solar power plant, the need for additional equipment depends on the type of station. The final amount also includes the cost of installation work and the first year of service support.

The average price of installing solar panels in Kyiv is about $800 for each kilowatt of grid station power. If we compare the total cost of projects for 20 and 30 kW, this value reaches 16 and 24 thousand dollars, respectively. A slight increase in the amount is possible when using additional metal structures for mounting panels that act as a frame. The cost of a hybrid station is increased by the cost of installing batteries and hybrid inverters.

If the solar station is designed only for its own energy consumption, its installation time may be limited to one to two weeks. Connection to the "green tariff" takes longer. It takes at least a month from the design of the solar power plant to its commissioning.

SUNSAY Energy offers Kiev residents an optimal ratio of cost and quality of services provided. Customer support continues during the operation of the solar station. After-sales service and monitoring allow you to identify shortcomings in time, adjust the operation mode of the panels, and troubleshoot to maintain performance. An investment in autonomous energy supply will pay off after 4-5 years, after which the SPP works only in plus, providing cost savings or a stable income when connected to the "green tariff".
