Self-consumption and net-metering schemes in Europe

Main types of incentives:

• Direct: Self-consumption premium

(former DE and IT schemes)

• Indirect: FiT or support is < retail electricity price (DE, IT)

Self-consumption and net-metering schemes in Europe NET METERING

NET-METERING / NET-BILLING

Net-Metering

• Physical compensation of your PV production volume over your consumption volume during a set period of time (year/month/day/hour)

(meter turns backward)

• = resulting in a simple billing arrangement

• Incentive = savings on the electricity bill

Net-Billing:

• Economical compensation of your PV electricity production value over your consumption value during a period of time

Self-consumption and net-metering schemes in Europe

DE: Self-consumption encouraged with lower FiTs Market integration Model since Aug. 2012 (<1000 kWp)

IT: Scambio Sul Posto (≈ net-billing) where compensation < electricty retail price (< 200 kWp)

ES: Self-consumption allowed (<100 kW )

NL: Yearly Net-metering < 3x80 A

DK: Hourly Net-metering

BE: Yearly Net-metering (<10 kVA)

UK: Self-consumption right + Export tariff (<30 kWp)

TR: Daily Net-metering (< 1 MWp)

Page 13: NET-METERING AND SELF- CONSUMPTION · PDF fileSelf-consumption and net-metering schemes in Europe What is self-consumption? Self-consumption incentives and net-metering: how does it

Self-consumption and net-metering schemes in Europe

Germany: Self-consumption is a key driver of the 2013 market (95% of systems commissioned): Since 2012 no more self-co premium, Driver: retail electricty prices> FiT

• Discussion on financing of grid operators ongoing due to reduced revenues

Italy: Self-co premium + fiT ended in June 2013.

• Difficulty to restart market with current only scheme: scambio sul posto (net-billing scheme). However retail price > scambio sulposto support which is relatively attractive

• need public support to communicate on scheme

UK: self-consumption is allowed + generation tariff + export premium = attractive scheme compared to Italy or Germany

Belgium: net-metering provoking reactions from DSOs to get refinanced

• Flanders set fix grid fee linked to installed capacity to finance DSOs: unfair for existing systems; preventing further development

• Wallonia thinking of similar measure

Netherlands: combined net-metering and grant driving maket. So far no issue with DSOs. Limit of max production for compensation (5000 kWh) removed

Denmark: small scale yearly net-metering stopped in Nov 2012 due to loss of tax revenues for the government. Only hourly net-metering remaining, DSOs asking to get compensation for lost revenues

Spain: Self-co was allowed in Nov. 2011 however missing regulatory framework; recent proposal from government to get a back-up toll which will affect also self-consumed share of electricity

Self-consumption and net-metering schemes in Europe

Easy administrative scheme (administrative costs share in Italy = 10 x level of Germany)

Energy-saving behaviour necessity for a change in mindsets

• Communication from public authorities

• Marketing strategy evolution from companies

Long term savings expectations

• Awareness on raising electricity prices

Attractive Financial support

• Investment repays over longer period than with FiTs

Recommendations

Page 17

Lift all regulatory barriers to self consumption

Give the right to self-consume. In many countries it is not the case yet, or simply not worth

Phase out regulated electricity prices and other regulatory barriers

Retail electricity prices should reflect actual electricity prices. Artificially low prices (e.g. Spain, Greece or France) prevents development of self-consumption or net-metering

No exposure of self-consumed electricity to grid costs, adapt grid charges based on consumer profile/impact

Spanish example with a back-up toll is the example of a wrong measure

Flemish grid charge based on installed capacity do not reflect the consumer load profile

Socialise network operation costs for electricity fed into system (as for other generators) and secure adequate remuneration

Remuneration of grid operators is needed but it should be socialised among consumers

French injection fee is not fair, cost should be socialised among consumers

Support enablers, such as smart meters, smart prosumer storage and Demand Side Management

German storage incentive is a first step
