Solutions for Tourist Units
Solutions for Tourist Units: Photovoltaics and Energy Autonomy
Tourist facilities, such as hotels, guest houses and resorts, have high energy demands, especially during the tourist season. At NAVER we understand the importance of energy efficiency in the tourism industry and offer solutions that drastically reduce operating costs, enhance autonomy and improve the sustainability of your businesses.
Challenges for Tourist Units
- High energy costs:
During the tourist season, energy consumption increases due to heating, cooling, lighting, laundry and other systems. - Increasing energy prices:
Continuous increases in electricity prices directly affect profitability. - Environmental requirements:
Modern travelers appreciate businesses that implement sustainable development practices.
How our solutions help your business
01 Installation of Photovoltaic Systems with Net Billing or Net Metering:
- Reducing energy costs: Photovoltaics cover the daily energy needs of your business.
- Selling excess energy: With Net Billing, excess energy is sold to the grid, generating additional income.
- Energy offsetting: With Net Metering, excess energy is offset against consumption, reducing bills.
02 Add Energy Storage Systems:
- Excess energy storage: Batteries store excess energy generated during the day.
- Energy autonomy: The stored energy is used at night or during periods of increased demand.
- Reducing grid dependency: Even in cases of power outages, your units continue to operate uninterrupted.
03 Solutions Tailored to Your Needs:
Energy Management Solutions for Tourist Units:
Net Billing, Virtual Net Billing & Zero Export
Tourism facilities, such as hotels, resorts and guest houses, face significant energy challenges, especially during the tourist season. At NAVER, we offer specialized energy management solutions, designed to reduce operating costs, increase energy autonomy and enhance the sustainability of your business.
Challenges for Tourist Units
High operating costs:
The increased use of air conditioning, lighting and equipment during the tourist season leads to high energy consumption.
Volatility in energy prices:
Continuous increases in electricity prices negatively affect profitability.
Sustainability requirements:
Environmental responsibility is an important criterion for travelers.
NAVER Energy Management Solutions
01 Net Billing
Net Billing allows the tourist unit to produce energy through photovoltaic systems and sell the excess energy to the grid:
- Energy production & consumption: Cover your daily needs with your own generated energy.
- Sale of excess energy: The excess energy is compensated based on energy exchange prices.
- Cost reduction: Save money and ensure stability in energy costs.
02 Virtual Net Billing
For tourist units with limited space for photovoltaics, Virtual Net Billing provides an ideal solution:
- Off-site generation: Energy production takes place in a different location from consumption.
- Energy balancing: The energy produced is credited to the consumer’s account, reducing costs even from a distance.
03 Zero Export
For units that do not wish or cannot inject energy into the grid:
- Autonomous consumption: All generated energy is consumed within the facility.
- Avoiding network restrictions: Ideal for areas where the grid cannot handle additional loads.
- Combination with batteries: Store energy for use during evening hours or periods of high demand.
Benefits for Your Business
Energy Cost Reduction:
Reduce operating costs by consuming your own generated energy.
Customized Solutions:
Choose the system that suits your needs, either through Net Billing, Virtual Net Billing or Zero Export.
Increased Energy Autonomy:
By using storage systems, you reduce your dependence on the network.
Environmental Awareness:
Reduce your property's carbon footprint and attract environmentally conscious travelers.
NAVER by your side
At NAVER, we specialize in energy management solutions for the tourism industry. With innovative products and specialized support, we help you turn your energy challenge into a competitive advantage.
Why do it?
01
Reduction of energy costs:
Energy costs are one of the largest operating expenses of a hotel. By installing a photovoltaic system, you will cover a large part of your consumption with your own generated energy, drastically reducing your electricity bills.
02
Protection against increases in energy prices:
Electricity prices are constantly rising. With your own photovoltaic system, you are protected from future cost increases.
03
Energy autonomy and reliability:
Especially if you combine the system with batteries, you have energy autonomy even in cases of power outages.
04
Sustainability and environmental responsibility:
A “green” hotel attracts modern travelers who are interested in sustainable practices. This can enhance your business’s image and competitiveness.
Is it worth the investment?
Yes, especially if your hotel has high energy needs and operates in areas with a lot of sunshine, such as Greece. The total cost of the investment depends on the power of the system, but the benefits exceed the initial cost within a few years.
When will you take amortization?
Payback period:
The payback depends on:
- The power of the photovoltaic system.
- The percentage of self-consumption.
- The energy prices.
In general, a Net Billing system can be paid off in 4-7 years.
Example:
A hotel that pays €50,000 per year for electricity and installs a system costing €120,000 can save approximately €20,000-€25,000 per year, reducing the payback period to 5-6 years.
How many years will you be covered?
Equipment Lifespan:
- Photovoltaic panels: 25-30 years.
- Inverters: 10-15 years (replaceable).
- Batteries: 8-15 years, depending on use and technology.
Overall Efficiency:
After amortization, you will have at least 20-25 years of low energy costs, while the system will continue to bring you benefit for decades.
Why now?
- Energy prices are constantly increasing, making the investment more and more profitable.
- Photovoltaic and battery technology has become more affordable and efficient.
- Programs such as Net Billing and Virtual Net Billing allow you to make the most of the energy you produce, whether in the same space or in a different location.
