As the growing need in the residential solar market, the concept of the

Recently, Germany's BMWK (Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Operations) officially approved the release of the Solarpaket I photovoltaic plan. The plan was proposed in June last year. After layers of arguments, it was finally passed with an overwhelming majority of 384 votes in favor, 79 votes against and 200 abstentions. It aims to accelerate the large-scale development of renewable energy sources such as photovoltaics and boost the climate environment. To achieve the protection goal, the deployment process of photovoltaic balcony systems will be further simplified, and the inverter power for simplified registration of balcony photovoltaics will be increased from 600W to 800W, promoting the utilization and sharing of distributed energy resources such as balcony photovoltaics.

Three major favorable policies driving the development of balcony photovoltaics

The Solarpaket I plan reflects the local government’s strong determination to promote the development of the balcony and DIY photovoltaic markets. This policy simplifies the installation process, system power, connection and power supply of balcony photovoltaic systems, making photovoltaic power generation simpler and more convenient.

01 Simplify the installation process

The Solarpaket I plan cancels the requirement that balcony photovoltaic systems must be equipped with a two-way electricity meter. The system can continue to use the original electricity meter, and the existing electricity meter is in an inverted state when power is supplied, which can reduce the electricity bills paid by households, which also means that residents can benefit from it. Obtain more green benefits; at the same time, the new policy also requires that for some easy-to-enter data, there is no need to register with the grid operator before installing the balcony photovoltaic system, further simplifying the system installation process.

02 Increase power limit

The Solarpaket I plan requires that the balcony photovoltaic system should be more efficient, and the system installed capacity and the grid connection limit of the inverter power have been increased. The system installed capacity does not exceed 2kW, and the inverter equipment power limit is increased to 800W, which also shows that higher output power inverters can be put into the system to increase photovoltaic power generation.

03 Convenient socket power supply

The balcony photovoltaic system is easy to connect to the grid. You only need to connect the AC cable plug to the household socket to achieve grid-connected power generation. The Solarpaket I plan points out that in the future, balcony PV will need to use ordinary European plugs and be directly connected to the grid without other restrictions, making it easier to connect the system to the grid.

The approval of the Solarpaket I plan means that the simplification of the balcony photovoltaic registration process has been confirmed and supported at the government regulations level; at the technical level, the German Electrical Engineers Association VDE planned to simplify the rules for balcony photovoltaic systems in early 2023. Increase the power limit to 800W to simplify the registration and debugging process. I believe that under the leadership of the government, VDE's technical standards and precautions related to 800W will be announced soon to guide the high-quality development of balcony photovoltaics, respond to balcony photovoltaic needs

In the context of global carbon neutrality, photovoltaic technology is developing rapidly, and the installation cost of balcony photovoltaic systems is gradually declining. As the German government further simplifies the rules for balcony photovoltaic systems, it will greatly stimulate the demand for balcony photovoltaic installation, and the balcony photovoltaic market will also It will be further expanded in Europe and even the world, helping photovoltaics truly enter thousands of households.

SUNOHOO offer balcony solar unit in various power options. The modules and the microinverter are integrated together once this integrated PV system left the factory. This would decrease the installation procedure and reduce the cost of system mounting. And all plug-in connection, makes users could mounting the entire system by themselves.

SUNOHOO’s all-plug-in balcony solar system is well positioned to be a leading solution for issues around balcony installations. We have shipped the products to Germany,Austria,France and other European countries over the past year, Received unanimous praise and trust from our customers.

SUNOHOO adheres to our original intention of promoting a powerful future and helps global users embrace a sustainable lifestyle by providing unique solar solutions to the market.
