On February 14, 2025, the Federal Council passed the Solar Peak Act, which entails far-reaching changes for operators of photovoltaic systems. One of the most important consequences: The direct use of solar power will become even more economically attractive - and with it the tenant electricity model!

What will change as a result of the Solar Peak Act?

1️⃣ No feed-in tariff with negative electricity prices

• • • If electricity exchange prices slip into negative territory, there will be no more feed-in tariffs.
    • This makes self-consumption & tenant electricity models particularly worthwhile!

2️⃣ Mandatory for smart meters & control boxes

• • • New PV systems from 7 kWp must have smart metering systems.
    • Advantage: Exact consumption and feed-in data - ideal for transparent tenant electricity billing.

3️⃣ Feed-in limitation without control technology

• • • Those who do not install a control box may only feed in 60 % of the installed output.
    • Better: Consume directly and use tenant electricity!

4️⃣ Facilitated direct marketing for smaller PV systems

• • • Systems below 100 kWp benefit from simpler rules for direct marketing.
    • Tenant electricity models can be designed more flexibly.

What does this mean for tenant electricity?

1️⃣ Self-consumption instead of feed-in!

With the Solar Peak Act 2025, tenant electricity is becoming even more important. Supplying solar power directly to tenants makes you less dependent on feed-in tariffs and rising electricity prices. Direct consumption on site reduces energy costs, as tenant electricity is cheaper than purchasing from the public grid. At the same time, this solution helps to reduce the load on the electricity grids and supports decentralized energy supply.

2️⃣ Technical requirements now mandatory!

An important innovation as part of the Solar Peak Act is the mandatory introduction of smart meters. These digital meters make tenant electricity projects more efficient and transparent. Automated control optimizes energy distribution so that both tenants and landlords benefit from better control and use of the solar power generated.

3️⃣ Tenant electricity - a future-proof solution for landlords & tenants

Tenant electricity not only brings ecological benefits, but also economic ones. Property owners increase the attractiveness of their buildings and rely on sustainable energy concepts that offer long-term competitive advantages. Tenants benefit from cheaper and climate-friendly energy - solar power directly from the roof lowers electricity costs and reduces the carbon footprint.

The Solar Peak Act 2025 will make tenant electricity even more attractive and easier to implement. Now is the right time to invest in a sustainable energy future!
