Ewe, ukucwangcisa ixesha legeyza kunokuyonga imali, kodwa ukonga kokwenene okuvela kwifiziksi kuphela kuncinci kakhulu kunokuba uninzi lwabantu lucinga. Kwikhaya eliqhelekileyo laseMzantsi Afrika, ukucima igeyza kwinxalenye yosuku kuzisa ukonga okuncinci kobushushu, malunga neR30 ukuya kwiR60 ngenyanga. Noko ke, xa ubala neentlawulo zeTime-of-Use kunye nesiphithiphithi socimicimi, ucwangciso olukrelekrele luba nenzuzo enkulu—kungekhona ngenxa yokuba usebenzisa amandla ambalwa, kodwa ngenxa yokuba uthenga amandla ngamaxesha atshiphu kwaye uthintela imijikelo yokufudumeza engenamsebenzi ngethuba lokucima kombane.

Ifiziksi: Ukulahleka Kobushushu Ngokumileyo Kunye Namandla Okuphinda Kufudunyezwe

Kukho intsomi eqhelekileyo esasabalele emakhayeni aseMzantsi Afrika: "Kufuna amandla amaninzi ukuphinda ufudumeze igeyza ebandayo kunokuyigcina ishushu." Oku akuchanekanga ngokwefiziksi yobushushu. Ukulahleka kobushushu esitsheni kuxhomekeke ngqo kumahluko wobushushu phakathi kwamanzi angaphakathi nomoya ongaphandle. Xa ucima igeyza, amanzi ayaphola, umahluko wobushushu uyancipha, kwaye izinga lokulahleka kobushushu liyacotha. Igeyza epholileyo ilahlekelwa ngamandla ambalwa aya emoyeni ojikelezileyo kuneshushu.

Kodwa ukonga kokwenene kunqunyelwe ngumgangatho we-insulation yegeyza yakho. Phantsi koMgangatho weSizwe waseMzantsi Afrika (SANS) 151, igeyza yanamhlanje enomlinganiselo we-B eneelitha ezili-150 ilahlekelwa malunga ne-1.5 ukuya kwi-1.9 yeekhilowathi-iyure (kWh) kwiiyure ezingama-24 xa igcinwe kwi-60°C. Ukuba ucima igeyza iiyure ezili-16 ngosuku, wehlisa umyinge wobushushu bamanzi ngelo xesha, uncipha ukulahleka ngokumileyo malunga nama-30%. Oku konga malunga ne-0.5 kWh ngosuku. Kwintlawulo eqhelekileyo kamasipala eyiR3.50 nge-kWh, oku kuthetha ukonga kweR1.75 ngosuku, okanye malunga neR52 ngenyanga. Kukonga kokwenene, kodwa akusayi kulinciphisa kakhulu ityala lakho lombane kukodwa.

Ubunzima Obuziswa Ngucimicimi

Ucimicimi uyaluphazamisa ucwangciso olulula. Ukuba usebenzisa ithayima elula yomatshini kwibhodi yakho yombane, ukucima kombane kweeyure ezimbini kuya kutsalela umva iwotshi yethayima ngeeyure ezimbini (ngaphandle kokuba inebhetri yokuxhasa, edla ngokufa emva kokucima kombane okuphindaphindiweyo). Oku kuthetha ukuba igeyza yakho isenokugqiba ifudumeza ngamaxesha aphithizelayo okanye, into embi ngakumbi, ingakwazi ukufudumeza phambi kokuba uhlambe kusasa.

Ngaphezu koko, ukuba ucimicimi ukunyanzela ukuba ufudumeze igeyza yakho ide ifike kubushushu obuphakamileyo (umzekelo, ukuyinyusa isuka kwi-60°C iye kwi-70°C ukuze "igcine" amandla obushushu amaninzi ngexesha lokucima kombane okude), wandisa ukulahleka kobushushu ngokumileyo. Umahluko wobushushu ophakamileyo unyusa izinga lokulahleka kobushushu, uchithe inxalenye yokonga obubunethemba lokukufumana.

Uloyiso Lwemali Lokwenene: Iintlawulo zeTime-of-Use

Inzuzo yemali yokwenene yokucwangcisa igeyza eMzantsi Afrika ixhomekeke kwixesha, kungekhona kubushushu. Oomasipala baya besiya besusa abahlali bababeka kwiintlawulo zeTime-of-Use (ToU), ezinjengentlawulo iHome Flex yaseKapa. Phantsi kwezi nkqubo, umbane osetyenziswa ngamaxesha aphithizelayo (ngokuqhelekileyo ukusuka ngo-06:00 ukuya ku-09:00 nango-17:00 ukuya ku-19:00 ngeentsuku zeveki) ubiza ngaphezulu kakhulu kunangamaxesha angaphithiziyo.

Ielementi eqhelekileyo yegeyza itsala i-2 kW ukuya kwi-3 kW. Ukusebenzisa ielementi ye-3 kW iiyure ezimbini ngexesha eliphithizelayo kubiza ngaphezulu kakhulu kunokuyisebenzisa ebusuku okanye emini emaqanda. Ngokucwangcisa igeyza ukuba isebenze kuphela ngamaxesha angaphithiziyo, ungonga lula iR150 ukuya kwiR300 ngenyanga ngokwahluka kweentlawulo kuphela, nokuba iikhilowathi-iyure zizonke ezisetyenzisiweyo zihlala zilinganayo.

Okufunekayo Ukuze Ulawule Uze Uqinisekise Ukonga

Ukuze ubambe oku konga ungalahlekelwa ngamanzi ashushu, awunakuxhomekeka kwiithayima eziyimfama. Ufuna inkqubo yolawulo ekrelekrele edibanisa izinto ezintathu: ukubeka esweni amandla ngexesha lokwenene, ukuva ubushushu, kunye nokwazi ngocimicimi. Ukuba ufuna ukuyila okanye ukufakela inkqubo enakho ukudibanisa konke oku, izisombululo zethu ze-IoT yasekhaya zinika izixhobo ezichanekileyo nezakhelo zokudibanisa ezifunekayo ukuguqula ezi zibalo zibe kukonga okuzenzekelayo.

Inkqubo ekrelekrele ngokwenene ayisebenzi ngewotshi kuphela. Ijonga ubushushu bokwenene bamanzi phezulu nasezantsi kwisilinda. Ukuba amanzi sele ekwi-55°C, ithintela ielementi ukuba ivuthe. Ikwajonga nedwelisa lamaxesha ocimicimi lasekuhlaleni nge-API ukuqinisekisa ukuba imijikelo yokufudumeza igqitywa kanye phambi kokuba kucime umbane, endaweni yokuphazanyiswa isesembindini, into echitha amandla kwimijikelo yokufudumeza engagqitywanga.

Ukuthelekisa Amaqhinga

Itheyibhile engezantsi ibonisa indlela amaqhinga ohlukeneyo olawulo asebenza ngayo phantsi kweemeko eziqhelekileyo zoomasipala baseMzantsi Afrika, kucingelwa igeyza eneelitha ezili-150 kunye nenkqubo eqhelekileyo yentlawulo yeTime-of-Use.

Ngokufutshane: ukucwangcisa igeyza yakho kuyayonga imali, kodwa ukonga kobushushu okuvela ekuyicimeni kuncinci. Uloyiso lwemali lokwenene lulele kucwangciso olukrelekrele oluphepha iintlawulo zoomasipala zamaxesha aphithizelayo kwaye lukwazi ukujongana namaxesha ocimicimi. Ukuze ufezekise oku, tyala imali kwizixhobo zokuva ezisebenzayo nakulawulo olukrelekrele, endaweni yethayima elula, eyimfama.
