ᐅ Entry into force of the Solar Peak Regulation

Those who are currently planning a photovoltaic system or installing one in February should take a look at the Solar Peak Law.

In times of negative electricity prices, it seems that there will no longer be any compensation, or operators will be forced to limit the system’s output. From my perspective, this means that photovoltaic systems without storage will likely no longer be economical compared to those with storage.

Our (storage-free) system will be installed on the roof this week, and I hope we can commission it before the deadline for the law to take effect.

For me, they arrived fairly quickly and determined that we don’t have sufficient LTE reception, even with a possible external antenna installed. So, no luck then....

Haha, in my basement there is absolutely none of that. No LTE, no 5G, not even Edge or anything else.

Ah, that could actually be an idea. Lining the HVAC system with aluminum foil...

Our heat pump is not throttled, but the wallbox would fall under section 14a.

Yes, actually. But it depends on the grid operator whether they install a smart meter. I have been waiting for three years.

Does the grid operator install the smart meter? I thought the intelligent metering system (iMSys) provider was responsible for that.
I received the smart meter together with the inverter. Probably because I reported consumption above 6000 kWh.

Last week, a representative from the utility company came to install a smart metering system.
They found that there was no space left in the panel for the additional hardware required because the reserved APZ area for the utility was blocked by a small submeter for our heat pump.
They left without completing the installation and said we should schedule a new appointment once the meter has been relocated and the area cleared.
It’s unfortunate that our electrician won’t have time for such a minor job before summer. *grin*

It almost is. Thanks to a basement ceiling insulation with aluminum foil on both sides installed from below, as well as a floor heating insulation on the ground floor with aluminum foil on both sides underneath. Nothing gets through at all.

You are referring to this 6000 kWh rule, right?
Unfortunately not, §14a concerns the control of consumption under SteuVE. This applies to heat pumps, electric vehicle charging stations, air conditioning, and photovoltaic battery systems that were installed after 01.01.2024.
