RES Changes: Better Settlements for Prosumers and Faster Procedures
The act introduces beneficial changes for solar panel owners, including higher refunds for unused electricity and the option to switch to hourly billing. It also shortens the waiting time for official decisions, building permits, and grid connections.
Key points
Higher overpayment refunds: The refund limit for unused electricity increases to 20% or 30% of the energy value, depending on the settlement method.
Choice of settlement: Existing prosumers can voluntarily and irreversibly switch to hourly billing, which qualifies them for the higher (30%) refund limit.
1.23 multiplier: The value of energy on the prosumer's account will be increased by a factor of 1.23, providing a more favorable calculation of funds.
Faster formalities: Authorities will have less time for decisions – e.g., only 14 days to register small rooftop installations and 45 days to issue grid connection conditions for rooftop systems up to 2 MW.
Construction simplifications: The time to obtain a building permit for larger rooftop solar installations (over 150 kW) with energy storage is cut to 30 days.
Requirements for industry: Large companies using energy discounts must invest in energy efficiency or emission reductions to keep their benefits.
