Energy sharing allows you, as the owner of solar panels, to sell your generated power at a higher price than what the energy supplier pays you for it through the injection rate.
How much do prosumers currently receive for excess electricity produced? An overview of the injection rates per supplier.
If that rate is also lower for the buyer than the current consumption rate, both parties benefit from that system. In addition, giving away is also an option and you can share energy with your own second home.
Although that picture looks attractive, it is best to keep in mind that various energy suppliers charge administrative costs for both the energy sharer and the receiver. Those who consult the March rate cards will notice that Mega and Octa+ now also charge a fee. They join Eneco, Luminus and DATS24, who already charged costs.
The costs for energy parts per year:
• DATS24 : 75 euro
• Octa+ : 108 euro
• Luminus : 150 euros
• Eneco: 65 euros
• Mega : 150 euros
