Another successful installation in Pareklissia, Limassol.
ZJ Energy Group provides solar based solutions for households and buildings, which is known as a net metering system. Net metering is an electricity policy provided by EAC, which involves utility customers who operate self-generation electricity systems. In these systems, the electricity continues to be consumed from the grid and all the electricity generated from the solar panels is returned back to the grid. A special meter is installed by the EAC that measures the difference between to total electricity consumed and the total electricity generated by panels that is returned back to the grid. As such, the customer only has to pay the difference between the two (i.e. net metering).
Our Process
Home Setup Process
The first step in the process is for the customer to obtain all required documentation, including 6 recent consecutive electricity bills. The customer can also authorise us to obtain the electricity bills on their behalf from the EAC. Once we have these bills, our specialists will analyse the consumption and come up with the required power for the photovoltaic system in order to maximise efficiency.
The next step is a site visit to the premises in order to establish the mounting system for the panels as well as to assess any other technical difficulties.
After these steps are completed, ZJ Energy Group can provide the customer with a detailed quotation for the job. Typically the investment return for a photovoltaic system is approximately 4 years, not taking into account any governmental funding that may be applicable at that time.
Installation Process
Our team of professionals will undertake the entire process of licensing the photovoltaic system. The entire procedure for the installation typically takes around 56 days, including approval times. Applications submitted to the EAC cost a flat fee of €250 +VAT, which includes the cost of installing the meter, connection to the grid and final inspection by the EAC. Application processing takes approximately 7-10 working days from the date of submission.
