Leichter zum Balkonkraftwerk: Solarpaket endgültig verabschiedet
www.tagesschau.de
Mini-Solaranlage auf dem Balkon oder Photovoltaik-Anlage im Mehrfamilienhaus - das soll künftig ohne komplizierte Anmeldung möglich sein. Bundestag und Bundesrat haben das Solarpaket beschlossen.

Just 10 years ago, landlords could ban you from putting solar cells on your balcony because it makes their building look “messy”. Now Germany is really pushing forward to let everybody put solar modules on their balcony with these new laws. How is legalization of balcony solar cells in your country? Is setting up solar modules on your balcony easy or difficult law-wise?

    Yes with a grid tie inverter it’s pretty much that easy. But doing it yourself this way can be dangerous to electricians who thought they cut the power. If the “island protection” on the inverter fails to disconnect the inverter after the lid of power those wires could still be hot.

      What’s interesting about this is that you don’t have to necessarily pull permits for electrical work, as nobody is running conduit or attaching to electrical panel.
      Im grandfathered into an old solar rate plan, and if I change the system or add more panels I’ll lose that privilege. However, if I don’t have to tell the city or utility anything, that opens the door for expanding with balcony solar panels.
