Germany’s Year-End Mini-PV Deals Surge as Solakon Slashes Prices and Storage Bundles Fall

Regulatory changes that allow 2,000‑watt module sets under an 800‑watt feed‑in cap are steering buyers to higher‑power kits with add‑on batteries.

Overview

  • Solakon’s holiday promotion runs through January 1, 2026, with onLite (900 W) from €199.99, onBasic (1,000 W) from €249.99, and onPower (2,000 W) from €399.99, all optionally bundled with the Solakon ONE storage.
  • Solakon ONE is marketed as a modular 2.11 kWh unit expandable to 12.66 kWh with up to 8,000 cycles and a 10‑year warranty, and PC‑WELT reports the manufacturer’s claim of an EPS socket delivering up to 2,200 W in normal grid‑parallel operation.
  • Competing 2,000‑watt sets with Anker Solarbank 3 Pro are discounted: Yuma lists a bundle at €1,189 with free shipping, and Tepto promotes a Christmas price of €1,099 including a Smart Meter (plus shipping).
  • Anker’s Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro is described with roughly 2.68 kWh capacity, IP65 weatherproofing, up to 3,600 W PV input via multiple MPPTs, and an advertised lifecycle of about 6,000 charge cycles.
  • Under Germany’s 2025 rules, plug‑and‑play systems can use up to 2,000 W of module power with feed‑in limited to about 800 W, and registration with the grid operator and market registry remains required, while vendor payback estimates vary from roughly 1.5–2.5 years to about four years depending on use conditions.
