ᐅ Heat pump and household electricity combined on a single meter

Hello,
I am having a heat pump with a capacity of 5.46 kWh installed soon and have some questions regarding the electrical installation. Yesterday, the electrician who works with the builder was on site. According to the electrician, Netze-bw applies lockout periods, even though I have only one meter for the heat pump, the photovoltaic system, and household electricity. A new meter was installed on 04.05.23 by Netze-bw due to the new photovoltaic system. Using a separate meter for the heat pump electricity is not an option. Does anyone have experience with Netze-bw and the required meter installation for heat pumps and photovoltaic systems? I want to run everything through a single meter. Do I need to register the heat pump with Netze-bw?
Regards

For you, possibly for us the difference is 10 cents.
The margin will come. At the latest when everyone literally vomits, there will be hefty discounts, you can adjust your crystal ball then.I’m quite relaxed about it.1. I’ve been waiting for that margin for 10 years already (unsuccessfully).
2. Even if the difference ends up being 10 cents, I don’t mind. In my example, I would save just 5€ per month on 3,000 kWh of heat pump electricity. But if I only use 2,500 kWh of heat pump electricity, the heat pump tariff becomes disadvantageous because I don’t save any money financially.

my experience is: I saved a lot! It should be around 1500 to 2000 € but you should also consider that there can be blackout periods, and with a photovoltaic system, it is not possible to save on both household electricity and heat pump electricity.

What kind of tariffs do you have? And what does your heat pump require?

Radfahrer11 Jun 2023 20:00Well, the rates have changed over the years.
I started with €0.09 per kWh (about $0.09), and in the first 10 years, there was a 15% discount.
I have to say that at first, we didn’t pay much attention to electricity consumption. We added brick cladding only after 5 years, which naturally resulted in relatively high consumption. After 18.5 years and 19 heating seasons, the meter shows 83,000 kWh (91,900 kWh).
In the early years, the meter rental fee was €50 (about $50), and now it’s €75 (about $75), increasing to €90 (about $90) from November 2023.
The price difference in recent years has been around €0.08 (about $0.08) per kWh.
By now, we pay more attention to consumption and regulate the temperature more carefully.
(We often opened the window when it got too warm.)
Now there are only two of us, and our consumption has dropped from an average of 4,500 kWh (4,500 kWh) to 3,200 kWh (3,200 kWh).

Radfahrer11 Jun 2023 20:18Anyone who recalculates will arrive at a much higher amount, but I no longer remember the difference from all the years and have calculated very conservatively, including other control cabinets, etc. Otherwise, the savings would be 5,000 euros.

By now, we pay more attention to consumption and adjust the temperature more efficiently.

Currently, there are only two of us left, and consumption has decreased from an average of 4500 kWh to 3200 kWh. With an 8-cent difference and around 3,000 kWh saved, that amounts to about €240, minus the basic fee and meter rental. So today, you are more or less breaking even. But you do realize that in the past you didn’t save money, but actually spent too much by overheating, right?
