Renewable energies account for an increasing share of Hungary’s energy supply since 2020, and photovoltaics is gaining importance in the country. With the grid connection of the two solar parks in Gerjen and Söjtör with nominal power outputs of 51 and 45 megawatt peak (MWp), another milestone for the energy transition in Hungary has been achieved.

In our article Tiny House – The big trend for a small footprint we already told you about our participation in the Tiny House of the Coburg University of Applied Sciences. Today, we asked two colleagues who were responsible for the project planning and coordination with the university a few questions about the background and the exact process. (more…)

Tiny House – The big trend for a small footprint

The Tiny House has been in vogue for quite some time. IBC SOLAR was now allowed to participate in a very special project: We supported the construction of a Tiny House at Coburg University of Applied Sciences. The living concept is available to students and guest lecturers throughout the year and shows how energy self-sufficient and CO2-neutral living can be implemented in practice. IBC SOLAR supplied the project with a complete photovoltaic system including storage and actively supported the university in the planning and implementation of the system. (more…)

Spacy living on earth

Take a creative idea, environmentally friendly and recyclable materials and a complete PV system from a single source from IBC SOLAR: The result is an extraordinary residential or office complex in a minimalist and futuristic design that cannot be surpassed in terms of sustainability! This is made possible by the cooperation between IBC SOLAR and SpaceFounder, a company from the Upper Franconia region that specializes in the construction of so-called “Spaces”. And the first joint projects are already being completed. (more…)

The Enphase system in the IBC SOLAR test_part II

Fast, simple and uncomplicated. All this applies to the Enphase system. In our first article “The Enphase System in the IBC SOLAR Test_Part I“, we told you all about the basics and the components installed in our Enphase test system. Because we wanted to find out what makes the system so special and how the setup, commissioning and operation of an Enphase PV system with the new Encharge storage system works. For this purpose, an IBC SOLAR colleague’s string system was converted to an Enphase system in a test setup, including the new Encharge storage. Now, in the second part of the blog series, we tell you about our experiences with the Enphase system with a view to installation and commissioning, followed by our conclusion. (more…)
