WWS Energy Solutions also relies on climate-neutral power supply with a 115 kWp PV system on its own company flat roof. Conveniently, we installed or mounted the solar system with inverter ourselves. With this investment, we reduce our carbon footprint and save on electricity costs at the same time. In this article we describe our approach as well as advantages of the PV system.
PV plant simply explained
A PV system (also photovoltaic system) is a solar power system that converts sunlight into electrical energy or climate-neutral electricity. The attached solar modules or solar cells generate direct current (DC). This is converted into usable alternating current (AC) with the help of a PV inverter. This is finally consumed by the customer or (surplus electricity) fed into the public grid.
Advantages of a PV system
The advantages of a PV system are manifold and clearly outweigh (monetarily) the disadvantages in the long term:
- Decentralized as well as independent energy supply
- Protection of the environment, through climate-neutral electricity
- High probability of long-term cost savings
- 100% flexibility in consumption up to (smaller) revenues
- Photovoltaic promotion by the federal government
Many see the supposedly high acquisition costs as a disadvantage. We see our 115 kWp PV system on the flat roof as a sensible investment and not as a cost or expense. Nevertheless, one should be able to raise a solid equity capital already before the acquisition.
Installation of our 115 kWp PV system
When installing or mounting our own 115 kWp PV system, we proceeded in this way, among others:
- Professional PV planning and inspection of flat roofs
- Detailed measurement as well as feasibility analysis
- Precise selection of the solar modules and the inverter
Once our flat roof was suitable for a new PV system, we quickly set about the installation and assembly work. In particular, the factors of size, orientation, inclination and shading of the roof had to be taken into account.

Experience & Competence
Thanks to our experienced assemblers, solar technicians and cooperating electricians, the realization of the PV system succeeded properly, efficiently and safely.
Thus, our solar system on the flat roof covers our energy needs and excess electricity is fed into the public grid. We are proud that we can now produce clean energy and make an important contribution to climate protection from now on.
–
Regulations
Regulations and permits apply to the installation of a PV system, which can vary depending on the country and region. In Germany, for example, registration with the grid operator is required. In addition, certain technical grid connection requirements must be met. Installation on the roof or other surface also requires a permit issued by the relevant authority. A certified installer can assist with the application and compliance process.
–
Assembly costs
The cost of mounting a PV system depends mainly on the size of the solar system. Furthermore, there are price variations in the type of installation and technologies used. As a result, the cost of a photovoltaic system, with an output of 115 kWp, can range from 80,000 to 150,000 euros. The investment costs can be reduced by state subsidies or grants.

Conclusion
The planning, installation as well as commissioning of our 115 kWp PV system required a lot of specialized knowledge and compliance with regulations or permits.
Thanks to our large network and large stocks, we succeed even such large projects safely & quickly.
We will be happy to provide you with competent advice on the purchase of your own PV system or balcony power plant and help you to install it properly and put it into operation promptly.
