Tenant electricity projects with metergrid: sustainable, affordable energy for tenants and landlords
Metergrid offers an all-in-one solution for the simple implementation of tenant electricity projects. With its software, owners of multi-party buildings can generate solar power on site and sell it directly to their tenants, thereby not only using sustainable energy but also generating additional income and driving forward the energy transition. Metergrid provides support from project planning to billing and at the same time increases independence from the public electricity grid.
Photovoltaics on the roofs of apartment buildings: A win-win situation for landlords and tenants
Many roof areas of apartment buildings and office buildings have so far remained unused as far as the use of photovoltaic systems (PV systems) is concerned. The reason is often that such projects are considered unprofitable. However, an innovative solution now makes it possible to install PV systems on these roofs and sell the electricity generated directly to the tenants. This creates a win-win situation: system operators benefit from a high-yield investment, while tenants receive cheap, locally produced electricity that is cheaper than grid electricity.
Flexible solutions for PV projects: Contract design and software support
The successful implementation of these projects requires comprehensive support in several stages. First of all, important factors such as contract design between landlords and tenants and regulatory requirements must be taken into account. In addition, a customized metering concept is developed and registered with the grid operator. A special software platform forms the interface between landlord and tenant and enables simple billing of the locally produced electricity, which is offered at favorable conditions. Thanks to these technical solutions, the demand for tenant electricity models is increasing significantly.
Software-based tenant electricity models without economic risk
The tenant electricity model offers clear financial advantages for both landlords and tenants. Operators of PV systems do not have to worry about the risk of selling electricity, as the software makes it possible to bill the tariffs for PV electricity and purchased residual electricity separately. The purchased electricity is passed on to the tenants on a one-to-one basis, completely eliminating the economic risk for the operators. This makes tenant electricity an attractive and low-risk solution that paves the way for a more sustainable energy supply.
