What changed

Since late October 2024, new self-consumption systems in Greece fall under net billing instead of net metering. The main gain is now the energy you use at the moment it is produced, while any surplus is paid in money. That's why we size each system to your own consumption profile. Existing net metering contracts continue as they are.

What's included

  • Consumption study and system sizing
  • Applications and grid connection with HEDNO (ΔΕΔΔΗΕ)
  • Panels, inverter and electrical installation
  • Storage batteries, where they pay off
  • Production monitoring on your phone
  • Maintenance and panel cleaning

Who it's for

Homes

A lower electricity bill all year round, with or without a battery.

Villas & rentals

Peak demand (air conditioning, pools) falls in summer, exactly when the sun produces most.

Businesses

Daytime demand is largely covered by what your roof produces.

Questions about this service

How is net billing different from net metering?

Under net metering, the energy you exported was offset against what you drew from the grid. Under net billing, you use what you produce directly and any surplus is paid in money. Existing net metering contracts continue as they are.

Do I need a battery?

With net billing, a battery increases how much of your own energy you use, for example in the evening. Whether it pays off depends on when you consume. We calculate it in the study.

How much does a solar system cost?

It depends on the power, the roof and whether you add a battery. After the site visit we send a detailed quote.
