No, the self-consumed electricity provides the overall better return. This could be increased by a storage system. But since the storage is still so expensive, it is not worthwhile. So build a large system, consume electricity as much as possible during sunshine (increase self-sufficiency rate), and feed the rest into the grid. This yields the most in the end.

So build a large system, consume electricity as much as possible when the sun is shining (increase autarky rate), and feed the rest into the grid. That's the most profitable way.

Unfortunately, you consume the least electricity when the sun is shining...

In sunshine, unfortunately, one consumes the least electricity...

Apart from winter, that is quite accurate for most. Washing machine, dryer, dishwasher with timer, and cooking until 6 pm.

Yeah, it always depends on the living circumstances.
For us, that's not the case. I'm only away from home for 3 days, on Monday I work from home and Friday is off. On weekends I'm at home.
My wife mostly works from home or teaches her courses in the evening.
The kids are at home in the afternoon and in bed in the evening.
Washing machine, dishwasher, dryer are some of the biggest electricity consumers, you can set them accordingly or let them run.

But yes, that's true. Many find it a bit difficult, but still, you can control quite a bit if you want to.

Washing machine, dishwasher, dryer are some of the biggest electricity consumers, you can set them accordingly or just run them.

But yeah, that’s true. Many people have a bit of trouble with it, but still you can control quite a bit if you want to

Yeah, I see it the same way. Our basic consumption is continuously somewhere around 300wh. All other devices consume about 5-8 times more per device. If you don’t control that or turn them on senselessly, then the photovoltaic system basically only finances itself through feeding energy into the grid and takes correspondingly longer to pay off. But you do get into it and even have fun saving electricity from the supplier.

Did you stay below the 10-unit limit with the occupancy on the roof or do you have to pay the [Erneuerbare-Energien-Gesetz] surcharge?
