Everything you need to know about the new self-generation electricity system Net-Billing<\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It is a fact that in recent years solar energy has experienced remarkable growth worldwide as well as in Greece. The rising trend in electricity prices, combined with the environmental awareness of the average Greek consumer, has led more and more professionals and investors to seek alternative ways to cover their energy needs.
The significant progress in photovoltaic technology, the rapid reduction in the cost of installing a system, as well as the institutional incentives provided by the Greek state, have all contributed decisively to the development of solar energy in the country.
In this context, the Ministry of Environment and Energy, as an improvement to the existing scheme (Net-Metering), introduces the new Net-Billing scheme,<\/strong> aiming for more efficient and financially beneficial compensation for the energy produced. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is<\/strong> Net<\/strong>–<\/strong>Billing<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Net-Billing (synchronized energy offset)<\/strong> is the new method of energy offsetting and applies to both households and businesses. It is called \u201csynchronized offset\u201d because the balancing of production and consumption occurs in real time (equal to the deviation settlement period\u201415 minutes). Essentially, it is a system that allows consumers to generate their own electricity from renewable energy sources (e.g., photovoltaic systems) and use it for their energy needs. If there is surplus energy, it is sent to the grid and credited to the consumer\u2019s account. The main idea of Net-Billing is to compensate the producer-consumer for the energy fed into the grid. For households, the maximum power limit is 5 kW for single-phase systems and 10.8 kW for three-phase systems. For businesses, the maximum limit is the Agreed Supply Capacity. <\/p>\n

What are the benefits of Net<\/strong>–<\/strong>Billing<\/strong>?<\/h3>\n

Due to the rapid increase in network usage costs in recent years, the profits from surplus energy in a Net-Metering system have been significantly reduced. The problem was more pronounced in households where users were away during the day (e.g. at work) and all consumption took place during nighttime hours when there was no production. <\/p>\n

With the Net-Billing scheme, surplus energy is compensated either at a fixed rate or, in the future, according to a variable compensation price. Additionally, Net-Billing finally resolves the problem of energy providers\u2019 reluctance to offset energy produced during summer and midday hours with energy consumed at night or in winter, when the cost of that energy is much higher. <\/p>\n
