| Abstract [eng] |
Despite numerous attempts to transition towards renewable sources, this process is problematic. Governments in many countries support households intending to install solar modules and batteries and obtain other devices using solar energy (e.g., chargers for electric cars). Those essential tools of economic policies are partly wasted since many barriers still exist. One such barrier is the absence of available digital solutions that allow the efficient use of solar batteries. Analysis of numerous cases revealed that solar batteries can be charged just using energy generated by solar modules. It is a pity, alas, that their function finishes here. Solar power is not always the cheapest one. The market price of electric energy in grids during some periods is negative. It would be reasonable to have an innovative battery charging system to take surplus energy from grids and store it for later use. Solar energy could be used when energy prices in grids are unfavourable. Alas, batteries lack a smart system allowing them to choose between energy sources for their charging since they can be charged just from one source selected in advance. The described barrier hinders the effective use of electric energy. It seems that creating a simple program would solve the issue. Alas, the challenge is deeper: state infrastructure is devised in a way that does not allow consumers to use different electrical energy supply channels simultaneously. Hence, on the one hand, subsidies are provided for renewable energy consumers; on the other hand, monopolistic suppliers possessing grids hinder the efficient use of electricity. |
