Invest in photovoltaic systems as a means of generate your own energy Electricity became popular in Brazil and around the world. Concern about the high cost of energy supply, ensuring continuous supply without worrying about outages in distribution networks and, for many, concern about the environment made this medium popular

According to ABSOLAR (Brazilian Photovoltaic Energy Association), properties with photovoltaic installations can increase in value by up to 10%. The complete association that this appreciation is due to the economic and environmental benefits that the source provides.

In addition to saving on energy bills, the Installation of the photovoltaic system brings a long-term return on investment and increases the value of the property. According to data from ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency) Brazil currently has around 2 million self-generating systems of solar energy installed in residential properties.

Installing a photovoltaic system is beneficial for several factors. O system has an average useful life of 25 years and the return on investment occurs between two and five years, depending on the size and specificities of each project. Furthermore, the system offers a differentiated design for properties.

A generation of own energy also if opposed due to the economy, energy credits and the issue of sustainability, which is increasingly important for Brazilians. 

According to a Clarissa Zomer, architect and doctor in civil engineering, solar energy specialist integrated into buildings, when photovoltaic modules are integrated into the architecture in a functional way, such as facade and roof coverings, this investment will be recovered through energy generation, whereas any other conventional construction material will never pay for itself.

A architect further comments that in addition to the resident generating their own energy, it will not consume an extra area of ​​land. “The resident will have a sustainable house, which stands out from the rest: two houses of the same size, same land, same location, one of which has photovoltaic integration and the other does not, the one with solar energy will certainly have a financial appreciation” , he stated.
