Performance parameter

• 3 photovoltaic systems with 30, 30 and 25 kWp

• CHP unit with 14 kW electrical and 19 kW thermal output

• Battery storage with 135 kWh

• 2 grid-forming inverters, each 42 kW

Task

• The entire farm is energy self-sufficient—no water or electricity from outside. The main energy source is three photovoltaic systems. Excess energy is either stored temporarily in two specially manufactured Reflex storage tanks and/or used for rapeseed oil production in a rapeseed mill. The electricity is also used by heating elements for hot water preparation and backup heating. In case of a shortage of solar energy (e.g. in winter), backup is provided by a CHP unit, which is operated with self-harvested and pressed rapeseed oil. Since the farm, and with it all its animals and inhabitants, is dependent on a reliable energy supply, the entire system must run faultlessly and redundantly
