Balkonkraftwerk

(A)  Was alternative Energiegewinnung angeht, ist das BALKONKRAFTWERK  "DER LETZTE SCHREI“ in Deutschland. Worum handelt es sich? 
(B)  Ein oder zwei Solarmodule werden auf dem Balkon eines Hauses, auf der Terrasse oder an der Fassade installiert. Sie erzeugen maximal 800 Watt Solarstrom, der über eine Steckdose in das STROMNETZ des Haushalts eingespeist wird. Die Anschaffungskosten sind nicht allzu hoch. Die Installation ist kein Problem und der bürokratische AUFWAND hält sich in Grenzen. 
(C)  Natürlich spielen mehrere Faktoren eine Rolle, aber eine solche Anlage kann sich in etwa 6 Jahren amortisieren.Es ist klar, dass Balkonkraftwerke die Energieprobleme unserer Zeit nicht lösen werden. Es ist auch klar, dass man mit ihnen keinen finanziellen Gewinn macht. 
(D)  JEDOCH ist die Installation einer solchen ANLAGE ein Schritt in Richtung Energie-Ersparnis. Man lernt, bewusster mit Energie umzugehen und Spaß macht es auch.
