Hello everyone,
since I am not an expert in this field and want to avoid making mistakes, I would like to know your opinion.
We have purchased a newly built house from a developer, and currently the electrician is working on the property. A high-voltage connection is planned for the garage. However, an electric or hybrid car is not planned within the next 1-2 years. Does it make sense to have a wall box installed right away because of the current incentives? At least that is what the electrician suggested.
Or is just running the cable enough for now (is there any funding for that)? How would you proceed?
Thanks for your advice.

Okay, so that means that even when choosing any provider, Westnetz is authorized to intervene in the "control" system.
To put it differently: Are there any other disadvantages to be expected if you take advantage of this free offer and later use "alternative" technologies/connections?
Currently, I assume that their connection would simply remain unused in case you disagree with the control system and its tariffs.
Any other known catch? 🙂

They can set the conditions for grid usage and specify restriction periods. This probably also applies to expensive charging stations that need to be controllable.

I’m not an expert, but that would actually make the most sense. The grid operator has an interest in controlling the loads.
If you later sign a contract with Yello or any other provider, the reseller doesn’t really care about load control. That’s the responsibility of the grid operator.
Right?
I don’t see any other disadvantages. That should be enough. The current timeframes aren’t set in stone either. They can change if suddenly everyone in your neighborhood wants to charge at 8 pm.
Most likely, similar regulations will soon apply to all controllable systems anyway, including those funded by KfW and other controllable installations.
Hello to all e-mobility users and those who want to become one!
I am still undecided about whether to install the larger electrical panel prepared for an additional submeter or not. The extra cost is around 1,200 euros.
It says:
“The additional submeter is only necessary if the electric vehicle charging cannot be handled through the main meter and you want to use a separate tariff.”
How am I supposed to know if I will want to use a separate tariff in X years? 🙂
At least I have decided against it for the heat pump, and I don’t need a submeter for the photovoltaic system either. Somehow, I don’t see the point in investing 1,200 euros more now (with further rearrangements in the utility room) for something I might never actually need. 🙁
Any opinions?
Thank you in advance!
