OwnPV-outlook: prosumers as an efficient, sustainable and robust element of the future energy system
(OwnPV-Outlook: PV-Eigenstrom als effizientes, nachhaltiges und robustes Element des zukünftigen Energiesystems)

Being able to produce one’s own electricity from PV (prosumers) is associated with many hopes and expectations, ranging from increasing the share of RE to technical and market innovations. However, there are concerns about the impact on electricity grids or the financing of electricity supply and grid expansion. This project examines and evaluates the integration and development of PV-self consumption models in the future energy system.
