ᐅ Is a Separate Meter and Electricity Tariff for an Air-to-Water Heat Pump Beneficial?

Hello everyone,
We have an air-to-water heat pump in our newly built house and are considering whether it makes sense to install a separate meter for it and to get a separate tariff. Do you have any experience with this? Is it worthwhile?

For household electricity, I pay a fixed fee of 11.69 per month and a consumption price of 32.57 cents/kWh.
For heat pump electricity, I pay a fixed fee of 10.66 per month and a consumption price of 20.52 cents/kWh.
In both cases, the grid operator is also the electricity provider.
That’s good to know. So that would work. And I could consider switching the provider for household electricity. Then the only question would be if it’s possible when the photovoltaic system is connected through both meters and there are two different electricity providers. But it should be possible...

I don’t know the technical details exactly. I’d have to ask. At Westnetz, this is called Metering Concept 8. A meter cascade.
I have to say, switching to this took some nerves and not every electricity provider manages the virtual meter number properly. #newterritory

One more explicit question on this: if I decide to switch the provider for household electricity, what happens if my current provider then says they can no longer offer me the heat pump tariff? These are completely separate contracts. It shouldn’t be an issue. Otherwise, just switch the heat pump electricity provider too ;-) Verivox can also search for heat pump tariffs, or alternatively, proactively check directly with, for example, TEAG.
