For household electricity, I pay a basic fee of 11.69/month and a consumption price of 32.57 cents/kWh. For heat pump electricity, I pay a basic fee of 10.66/month and a consumption price of 20.52 cents/kWh. In both cases, the grid operator is also the electricity provider.
That is good to know. Then that would work. And I could consider switching the provider for household electricity. Then the only question would be if it works when the photovoltaic system runs over both meters and there are 2 different electricity providers. But it should...
I don’t know exactly how this is technically regulated now. I’d have to ask.
At Westnetz, this is called Metering Concept 8. A meter cascade. But I have to say, switching to it cost nerves and not every electricity provider manages the virtual meter number. #newterritory
Then one more explicit question about this: I decide to switch the provider for household electricity. What if then the current provider says they can no longer offer me the tariff for the heat pump?
Those are completely separate contracts. Shouldn’t be a problem. Otherwise, switch the heat pump electricity as well ;-) Verivox can also search for heat pump tariffs, otherwise proactively check, for example, with TEAG
