Photovoltaics are mandatory here, and we would purchase an electric car with the house. Whether the photovoltaics and storage really need to be that large is another question. But based on the current calculations from websites, I arrived at the values with our current consumption.
A photovoltaic system is good and also makes sense, only the storage does not; see here:
Example calculation
[*
- Acquisition cost of the battery:
[*]On average, photovoltaic storage systems cost about €800–1,200 per kWh of capacity. For a typical single-family house, a 5 kWh storage system is often chosen.
[*]At a price of about €1,000 per kWh, a 5 kWh storage system costs around €5,000.
[*]Electricity price and savings:
[LIST]
[*]The average electricity price for households in Germany is about 30–35 cents per kWh. Assuming the electricity price remains constant in the long term (which is rarely the case), and one can additionally consume about 1,000 kWh annually through the storage system itself.
[*]This results in savings of about €300–350 per year.
[*]Feed-in tariff:
[*]The electricity that would be fed into the grid without storage also generates income through the feed-in tariff (currently about 8–10 cents per kWh).
[*]The additional self-consumption thus reduces the saved grid electricity price by the feed-in tariff. Instead of 30–35 cents, the actual savings are about 20–27 cents per kWh.
[*]Payback period:
[*]Under these assumptions, the battery saves about €200–270 annually.
[*]At a price of €5,000, this results in a payback period of about 18 to 25 years.
Since batteries have a lifespan of about 10 to 15 years, it pays for itself at best 3 years after replacement :)
