Hello,
Today I found out that two electricity meters are planned to be installed in our new single-family house:
One for general household electricity and
one for heating electricity for the heat pump.
Our electrician wants to install the latter because he believes that heating electricity is cheaper than electricity for other consumption.
Unfortunately, there is no cheaper heating electricity available in our town, and I want to keep my existing electricity contract with EON, which I signed at Media Markt with a rate of 30 cents/kWh, and use it in the new house to bill both household and heating electricity.
According to EON, I can only bill one meter with this contract.
Within the next five years, a photovoltaic system is planned to be installed. At that time, I will definitely need a second meter.
Therefore, my question is:
Is it better to have only one meter installed now to cover current needs?
Or should the second meter be installed right away for the future photovoltaic system, even if it remains unused for the first few years?
For such an unused second meter, is there only an annual meter rental fee of about 20 euros, or am I required to have a separate electricity contract for that meter with a corresponding fixed monthly fee?
Unfortunately, I received many different answers to these questions today.

We also wanted to do the same with our low-cost electricity contract from our previous house.
However, when we asked our provider if we could take our contract with us to the new address, their reply was basically "Good luck, you fools."
