Has anyone here already looked into the coalition agreement presented today and its implications for (us) homebuilders?

A positive point for new homeowners could be that there will be an exemption for property transfer tax if the property will be owner-occupied. The rent control measures are planned to be extended. There is a goal to build 400,000 new homes, of which 100,000 will be publicly subsidized.

As the operator of a gas condensing boiler, I would have been very interested to know whether Nord Stream 2 will become operational or not, but I haven’t read anything about that. Natural gas-generated electricity is supposed to be phased out by 2040, whatever “phased out” actually means. In the mid-2030s, natural gas heating systems are expected to be discontinued.

What was the reason for choosing such a large battery storage for the small photovoltaic system?

I live in Belgium, where the conditions for residential solar power are much less favorable than in Germany. Additionally, the larger battery only cost 1000 euros more than the 5 kWh one due to subsidies. I also take battery wear into account. After 20 years, the original 10 kWh battery will probably only have about 7 kWh capacity left.
That’s why I ended up choosing the somewhat oversized storage capacity.

Different countries mean different electricity prices and different incentives. Electricity in Belgium is also very expensive, nearly at the same level as in Germany.
If you are satisfied with your solution, you have already done the most important part correctly.
