Some people we know in Esentepe had two solar panels put onto their roof back last year in the hope of generating their own electricity. They have about 26 batteries connected to it. After about a month they gave up because it didn't generate enough electricity to keep the batteries topped up.

Photovoltaic cells is not a genuine alternative to normal electricity supply as things stand but it can be an alternative to generators where normal supply is not available.
The weak link in the chain are the storage batteries. The proper heavy duty heavy cycle batteries are very costly and requires replacement about every five years. These cells may become viable if we have a new regulation so that we can feed the grid during daytime and use electricity from the grid during night time. Such a regulation is compulsory in EU but backward countries like south Cyprus have not understood its importance and have complied with the regulations reluctantly. Hence they charge far more for the electricity you use from the grid and pay too little for the electricity you supply back to them during daytime.

I am looking after a house in Zeytinlik and it is completely running with photovoltaic.
The owners are very happy with the system.
