  • Balcony power station – Set up the Solarman app optimally

    Screenshot of a solar panel monitoring app displaying the Statistik section. The background highlights blue solar panels, with the main heading reading Balcony Power System and a note showing it was last updated 5 minutes ago. www.commaik.de

    With a balcony power plant it is possible to cover the basic consumption of electricity in the household. But how do you monitor power generation? How do I know if the system is actually profitable? Quite clearly: with a program for analyzing, evaluating and monitoring PV power generation.

  • 800W balcony power plant easy to install & optimize by yourself

    Two large solar panels for a balcony power plant stand on wooden pallets outdoors. An arrow points from 600W to 800W. Inset images highlight the panels, power inverter, and cables, showcasing the system's details. www.commaik.de

    To cover the base load I have installed a small 300W balcony power plant for quite some time. I was able to gain some experience and optimize my own use of solar power. Now I am replacing my 300W balcony power plant with a new 800W balcony power plant. In addition to the new PV modules, I renew the substructure, the microinverter and, of course, the connection to the house grid. During my rebuild, a few questions came up, which I would like to answer with this entry and my video:   👉 What components does a balcony power plant consist of? 👉 How to fix a balcony power station?…

  • Set up 2. balcony power station and connect in series.

    Two large solar panels, part of a balcony power plant, are mounted on a wooden platform outside a modern house, angled to capture sunlight beneath a partly cloudy sky. www.commaik.de

    Despite my balcony power plant in the backyard and lower electricity consumption, electricity costs keep going up. According to the http://strom-report.de, KWh of electricity costs an average of 34.6 cents. New contracts currently cost as much as 41 cents. It is therefore necessary to think about cost-effective alternatives and to add another module to my existing Balkan power plant. But can I connect 2 different PV modules together at all? Do I need a new inverter for two modules or can I continue to use the two old micro inverters?
