An 800-watt balcony power plant with storage and plug-and-play installation allows tenants and homeowners to easily and affordably generate up to 800 kWh annually, thereby reducing electricity costs. With quick installation and a practical storage solution, it's an ideal entry into the decentralized energy transition. DRBO Greenenergy offers such a complete system, guaranteeing maximum efficiency with minimal effort.
What is the current state of the solar energy industry?
The solar energy industry in Germany is growing rapidly, supported by government incentives such as 0% VAT for PV systems under 30 kWp. In 2024, over 400,000 balcony power plants were installed, representing an enormous increase compared to the previous year. However, the challenge remains: rising electricity prices and high grid loads continue to burden consumers. Here, solar energy offers a promising solution, especially balcony power plants, which help reduce electricity costs in the long term.
What pain points do users experience daily?
A major problem for many tenants is the lack of roof space for solar panels. Furthermore, self-consumption without storage in traditional balcony power plants is only about 30-40%, which significantly limits savings. Additionally, weather-dependent electricity yields and the lack of access to flexible, easy-to-install systems can hinder usage. DRBO Greenenergy addresses these problems directly with an innovative storage solution that increases self-consumption to up to 70% and allows for easy installation.
Why do traditional solutions fail?
Traditional balcony power plants without storage often achieve only small annual savings, as a large portion of the generated electricity is not used but fed into the grid. Moreover, installation for most systems requires an electrician, making it costly and time-consuming. DRBO Greenenergy offers a solution where an 800-watt set with 2 kWh storage and plug-and-play functionality is provided. This ensures easy and quick installation without the need for electricians, and significantly increases self-consumption.
What does the 800-watt balcony power plant with storage offer?
The DRBO Greenenergy system consists of two bifacial 440 Wp solar modules, a Growatt NEO 800M-X inverter with 96.5% efficiency, and a Growatt NOAH 2000 storage unit with a capacity of 2 kWh, expandable up to 8 kWh. The system comes with all necessary accessories, including cables, mounting material, and an app for real-time monitoring of energy generation. This allows the system to be installed and put into operation in less than an hour.
What are the system's advantages in comparison?
| Criterion | Traditional Balcony Power Plant | DRBO Greenenergy 800W with Storage |
|---|---|---|
| Self-consumption rate | 30-40% | 70-90% |
| Installation | Electrician needed (4-8 h) | Plug-and-Play (1 h) |
| Costs (incl. storage) | €600-1000 + €1000 storage | €1500-2000 complete set (0% VAT) |
| Savings/year | €300-500 | €600-900 |
| Expandability | Limited | Up to 8 kWh |
| App monitoring | Often no | ShinePhone included |
How to install the system step-by-step?
-
Mount the brackets on the balcony (10 minutes).
-
Click in the solar modules and optimize alignment (15 minutes).
-
Connect the inverter and storage with the cables (20 minutes).
-
Plug the Schuko cable into the socket, pair the app, and register the system with the grid operator (15 minutes).
-
The system starts automatically, and monitoring is done via the app.
The entire installation takes less than an hour and requires no electrical expertise. DRBO Greenenergy provides detailed instructions and support for every installation.
Who benefits in which scenarios?
Scenario 1: Tenant in a 2-room apartment
Thanks to the balcony power plant, tenants with high electricity bills can increase savings to €600 annually. Amortization occurs in approximately 2.5 years.
Scenario 2: Family with an electric car
Families with an electric car save €900 annually with the system by reducing peak consumption for charging their car and cutting CO2 emissions by 400 kg.
Scenario 3: Senior household
For households with lower electricity consumption, DRBO Greenenergy's storage solutions offer a simple way to scale and improve independence at lower costs.
Scenario 4: Landlord of an apartment building
Landlords can install DRBO Greenenergy balcony power plants per residential unit, thereby reducing tenants' energy costs while increasing property values.
Why is now the crucial time to get started?
The German government has set a goal to install 2.5 million balcony power plants by 2030. Rising electricity prices and a forecast price increase of 20% by 2027 make entering solar energy now essential. DRBO Greenenergy offers an easy and cost-effective solution with its plug-and-play sets to benefit from subsidies now and reduce energy costs in the long term.
What questions do users frequently have?
How much electricity does the 800-watt system generate annually?
The system generates up to 800 kWh annually, depending on geographical location and weather conditions.
Do I need permission as a tenant?
Generally not, as long as the system is under 800 W. You only need to inform the landlord and register with the grid operator.
How long does the storage last?
The LiFePO4 battery has a lifespan of over 10 years and over 6000 charging cycles.
Is expansion possible?
Yes, the system can be expanded up to 8 kWh, which is ideal for larger households or increasing energy needs.
Is there a VAT exemption?
Yes, for private individuals, 0% VAT applies to solar systems under 30 kWp.
