self-consumption communities
Profit optimisation
The association for own consumption (ZEV) enables owners of commercial and residential buildings to make the solar power they produce themselves available to neighbors for their own use in return for a fee - even across neighboring properties. With an association for own consumption (ZEV), everyone involved benefits: You increase the profitability of your solar system and your neighbors or tenants are happy at the same time thanks to the lower electricity costs. Whether it is for apartment buildings or an entire area with several buildings: we are there for you.
With a ZEV you benefit from both cheap solar power and cheaper residual power .
How a ZEV works
The group for self-consumption shares a connection to the public grid and acts as a single consumer to the local energy supplier. From the connection, either surplus solar power is fed into the grid or additional power is purchased when required.
For tenants and property owners, joining together for self-consumption is often the only option for producing or consuming solar power themselves. Thanks to the ZEV, tenants can use green electricity and at the same time reduce their electricity costs.
After the ZEV is established, the community only receives a single bill from the electricity supplier. The ZEV operator is responsible for further billing among the individual ZEV participants and the metering infrastructure.
Electricity savings for tenants
In 2023, household electricity customers in Switzerland will pay an average of 27 cents per kilowatt hour of electricity. Tenants in a ZEV will pay just CHF 17 per kWh for their own solar power, including operating costs.
