A storage system makes more sense today than ever before. Everything else is pure nonsense. Yes, everyone will now jump on me again, but that’s just how it is.
A 10 kW storage system should cost less than 5000 euros. A storage system with 6.5 kW is clearly too small. A single-family home should always have between 10 and 15 kW.
It can quite well happen that when your system goes into operation, the feed-in tariff is abolished. Then you have a great full-feed-in system and give away the electricity for free while on the other hand you pay dearly for the electricity you draw from the grid.
I still don’t understand why a storage system should not be worthwhile. The value-added tax on photovoltaics was abolished, module prices have fallen by half and are at a record low, storage prices have dropped.
I have a 7.5 kWp system with a 10 kW storage system, need almost no electricity from the grid from mid-March to mid-November, still feed in about 3000 kWh.
But go ahead. Fill up your roof, feed in for 8 cents and be happy. Then you just sit in your kitchen and only run your dishwasher at noon when the sun is shining. I don’t care at all. For me, everything runs at night and during the day the normal electricity consumption is covered.
And such a system on a single-family home with a decent storage system should not cost more than 10,000 euros.
My electricity consumption has dropped from just under 6000 kWh to 1200. The additional 200 euros feed-in tariff don’t make me rich now either.
