This allows for effective control of electricity consumption and maximizes the self-consumption rate. If the balcony power plant is connected to a SunLit energy storage system, the generated electricity can also be used in the evening hours. A DRBO Greenenergy app allows convenient monitoring and control of the system.

Optimal integration factors:

• Combination with a SunLit energy storage for energy buffering

• Use of energy management systems

• Monitoring and control via DRBO Greenenergy App

• Adaptation to actual electricity consumption

• Consideration of daily and seasonal variations

What legal and technical requirements must be observed?

Before installation, the balcony power plant must be registered with the grid operator and in the market master data register. It is also necessary to obtain the consent of the landlord or the owners' association. Technically, the system should be correctly designed and secured to avoid negative effects on the power grid. DRBO Greenenergy supports its customers throughout the entire process – from consultation to registration and commissioning.

Legal and technical aspects:

• Registration in the market master data register
