Best Case History Award
Descrizione del progetto e contesto applicativo
1. The user has sufficient rooftop area, with operational demand throughout the year. During the night, when PV does not generate electricity, there is a high electricity demand.
2. During the night, the user can consume their surplus electricity generated from PV installations but stored in the battery system during the day.
3. Electricity prices have increased significantly, and while power outages are rare, when they do occur, it’s quite inconvenient and disrupt the daily activities in the football club.
4. As a football club with a tight schedule, they needed the PV system to be installed quickly.
Ruolo delle soluzioni impiantistiche
Solution
Installed 456pcs PV panels on the ceiling of one of the courts and a hybrid solar battery system in the underground parking lot.
With a basic battery storage system, they can take the electricity generated and distribute it over the day so that they can use it as much as possible in the football club.
The CHS2 Backup Interface provides backup power for either full or partial loads in the event of a grid interruption. In this case, during a power outage, the lighting of the stadium can still use battery power, ensuring that sports events there are not affected.
Benefici ottenuti e collaborazione tra i soggetti coinvolti
The primary economic benefit of the storage system comes from electricity cost savings through arbitrage – storing solar energy during daytime hours when electricity values are lower (or effectively zero cost for onsite solar) and discharging during high-value evening hours:
• Energy Discharged: 89.71 MWh annually
• Average Electricity Rate: €0.17/kWh (based on local tariff structures)
• Annual Savings: €15,250 (89,710 kWh × €0.17/kWh)
• Based on the demonstrated first-year performance:5
• Annual Savings: €15,250
• Simple Payback Period: less than 5 years based on storage system cost only
• The project has demonstrated exceptional reliability during its first year of operation:
Uptime
All three CHS2 units have maintained continuous operation without failures
Maintenance Requirements: Less than 8 hours annually for routine maintenance
Component Replacement: No replacement of major components required
Annual Maintenance Cost: Below €250
Collaboration
