Photovoltaic system with storage and wallbox: efficient, environmentally-friendly car charging

The photovoltaic/wallbox combination allows you to harness your self-generated energy for safe, cost-effective charging, ensuring savings, efficiency and independence from fluctuating energy prices.

A photovoltaic system and wallbox allow you to harness the surplus self-generated energy that would otherwise be wasted or put back into the grid for a negligible economic return. 
 

Using a combination of these technologies, vehicles can be charged whenever and however you prefer, allowing you to take advantage of the numerous incentives and liberate yourself from energy providers and fluctuating prices.
 

In addition to being more efficient than a domestic socket, charging with a wallbox is faster and safer for both the electric system and the vehicle, while also offering programming options and smart consumption monitoring. 

Today, we have access to safe and reliable photovoltaic-compatible wallboxes, which are able to integrate with domestic systems and exchange useful data with them in order to optimise home energy management, transforming the domestic charging station into an efficient and sustainable solution.
 

The best modern wallboxes offer cutting-edge technological functions: complete connectivity and management via an app, charging time control, and smart load management to supply the vehicle with power that is adapted to the household’s system and real-time energy needs.
 

The compact design allows the wallbox to integrate into a wide variety of private contexts. The device is also easy to install and available in both floor-standing and wall recessed or surface mounted versions.
 

When choosing the best wallbox for you, it is important to keep in mind vehicle charging requirements, the presence of a new or pre-existing photovoltaic system and the environmental factors of the installation site.

Installing and configuring a wallbox is a task best entrusted to certified, qualified electricians who are able to guarantee that the work carried out complies with technical and safety standards.
 

• The first step is to check the suitability of the existing electrical system, to assess whether the system requires an upgrade or is able to handle the additional load, as well as any need for a RCCB and an automatic MCB.

• During installation, it is crucial to assess exposure to the sun and atmospheric agents: on sunny or highly exposed walls, additional covers may extend the life of the wallbox

• Wallbox configuration is complete once the electrician has ensured the correct function of the device, along with the connection with any app and smart functions of the household.
   

The wallbox/photovoltaic combination is an efficient and functional solution that transforms the necessity of charging into an act that prevents wastage, which is also convenient and in sync with household energy needs.
