So... I just checked again and also did the calculations.
Value-added tax on self-consumption in the calculated year would be €242.40.
Income tax on feed-in amounts to €77.50.
Although a large part of that would also have occurred without the storage. If I only consider the tax on the stored electricity, I am at the €100 you mentioned for the 2,700 kWh. But from that I would have to subtract €46, which I would pay on the 2,700 kWh anyway if I fed it directly into the grid without storage.
So instead of the €513 savings per year I calculated, it would only be €467 for the storage.
6,000 / 467 = 12.85
So it would take one more year for the storage to pay off.
I know the entire calculation is not 100% accurate, since the investment in the photovoltaic system without storage would pay off sooner than with storage.
Actually, I just wanted to determine whether the statement that a storage system is basically always unprofitable is true.
