Batteriespeicher

Your feed-in tariff is expiring. What now?

Battery storage for existing PV systems on agricultural and commercial operations in Schleswig-Holstein.

After 20 years, your system's EEG feed-in tariff expires. A battery storage system shifts generation to the times your operation actually needs electricity, turning low-value feed-in into much more valuable self-consumption. The storage typically pays for itself within around 7 years.
Starting point

The EEG feed-in tariff ends after 20 years

Once the EEG support period ends, PV systems drop out of the tariff scheme. At the same time, tariff rates for newly built systems keep falling. This shifts the math: every kilowatt-hour consumed on-site is worth far more than the one fed into the grid. A battery storage system shifts generation to the times your operation actually needs electricity.

What a storage system changes in operation

Typically pays for itself within 7 years

Plus a tax advantage through special depreciation (Sonder-AfA) of up to 30%, limited until the end of 2027.

Better utilization of the PV system

Midday surpluses are stored instead of curtailed and are available again in the evening.

Peak shaving

Short spikes from milking equipment, cooling or drying are covered by the storage, keeping grid draw steady.

Higher self-consumption

Power that was previously fed in for around 3–6 ct now replaces grid draw worth around 25–30 ct.

Reference project

Commercial operation with a 240 kW PV system

An existing PV system with high daytime consumption was later extended with a battery storage system. Only the storage extension is calculated: what does it add, and when is it paid off?

Planning, installation and commissioning from a single source

We design the PV system and battery storage as a complete system matched to your load profile: assessment, sizing, installation, metering and protection technology, commissioning and grid operator registration. One point of contact stays responsible throughout the entire project.

Our price advantage

Through our direct import we can offer you storage solutions at significantly fairer prices – without compromising on quality and service. Benefit from modern technology at attractive conditions.

  • Direct from the manufacturer – no middlemen
  • Including imports from China with verified quality
  • Price advantage passed directly on to you
  • No compromise on quality – full warranty and certification

Storage sizes for every need

From small commercial operations to large-scale systems – we size your storage to match your consumption and your PV system.

Example: 238 kW PV system with 200 kWh storage

Our Hamburg reference project shows: a 238 kW PV system combined with a 200 kWh battery storage system reaches self-consumption of over 70% and pays for itself in under 7 years.
