Who is eligible?
For storage systems that draw electricity and feed it back
Customers who operate a storage system with final consumption can apply for a refund.
The storage system must be able to draw electricity from the grid, temporarily store it and feed it back into the grid later. At the same time, it also serves the household’s own consumption. Typical examples include electric cars with bidirectional charging or stationary home storage systems.
