Frequently asked questions

Do solar panels still pay off without net metering?

Usually yes, but less than with net metering. Solar power you use yourself saves the full electricity rate. For electricity you feed back, from 2027 you only get the feed-in compensation, minus any feed-in costs.

What panels earn then depends mainly on how much of their power you use yourself. An ordinary household without a battery often uses 30 to 40 percent itself; the rest goes to the grid. The higher this self-consumption, the more the panels earn.

How to get more out of them

Use electricity during the day when the sun shines, charge the electric car on surplus solar when it is at home, or look into a home battery. A dynamic contract can help if you shift consumption to cheap hours; feeding back at midday then often earns little.

Yield for your roof

The calculator gets the yield for your location, orientation and tilt from PVGIS of the European Commission, and calculates every hour of a year. You can also enter the measured generation from your inverter's app.
