What this changes for your decision
From January 1, 2027, the legal remuneration model can be based on the market price at the time of injection if the DSO and the producer do not agree on another price. This guide shows the elements to check in the quote and contract.
For your project, the item “battery 15 kWh” should be explained in terms of the building, consumption, grid connection and contract. Ask for the source, date and, for calculated values, the method used.
For your project: A published price is a benchmark and may not cover a complete installation. Check usable capacity, installation, inverter, warranty and losses using your tariff.
Three checks before signing
1. Load curve
Use quarter-hourly or hourly data to justify controllable capacity and uses.
2. Compatibility
Check inverter, EMS, battery, terminal, backup function and cloud dependency together.
3. Life cycle
Compare price, losses, warranty, degradation, replacement and service over the entire duration of use.
