Supplying apartment buildings with solar power from their own roofs still lags far behind the available potential in Germany. Many tenants and residents of apartment buildings would like to purchase green electricity - and owners are also open to the idea. However, the tenant electricity model previously laid down in the EEG proved to be too complicated to implement. With the shared building supply, there are now new options for apartment buildings.
Will this be the breakthrough for the PV electricity turnaround? What potential does it really offer? And what hurdles still exist? We talk about this with Julian Schulz, Co-Founder and Managing Director of the Stuttgart-based start-up Metergrid.
