Overview
- From 2027, Flevoland solar households are projected to miss about €259 per year, with Dronten the highest at €291 and Lelystad the lowest at €233.
- Independer estimates nearly 80,000 households in the province have panels, covering more than four in ten homes and concentrating effects across municipalities.
- Panels in Flevoland generate about 3,204 kWh annually on average, of which only 1,321 kWh is used immediately, so the surplus previously benefited most from one‑to‑one netting.
- University of Groningen modeling finds that compensating exports at roughly a quarter of the market price leaves households saving around €318 per year, implying five‑to‑seven‑year payback on a typical €4,500 system reduced to about €3,600 by a 21% tax discount.
- Researchers warn that zero compensation would generally erase profitability, and they highlight big differences by region and housing type, with stronger yields in North Brabant and Limburg than in Groningen and Utrecht and higher self‑consumption improving returns.
