Overview
- Under Solarpaket I, tenants and homeowners generally have a right to approval for mini‑PV installations, with exceptions for proven safety risks or disruptive glare, legal experts note.
- Courts have issued differing glare thresholds, including a ruling tolerating reflection on 60 days per year versus another rejecting disturbances of about two hours on 130 days.
- Owners must register their systems free of charge in the Bundesnetzagentur’s Marktstammdatenregister within one month of commissioning, with roughly one million units now in operation.
- Growatt’s NOAH 2000 storage returns to stock via ACTEC at about €467 for 2 kWh, featuring LiFePO4 cells, IP66 weather protection, expansion up to 8.192 kWh and Shelly Smart Meter compatibility for zero‑export setups.
- Retail competition intensifies with limited‑time bundles such as a Kleines Kraftwerk set pairing four 450 W TOPCon panels with an Anker Solix Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro for €1,359 including shipping through September 1.
