    A 5 kWh battery is about 1300 EUR, with a 10 year warranty.

    1-2 EUR is minimum saved pr. day. Let’s just say I only save 1 EUR pr. day. That’s 365 EUR/year. RoI is max 3.5 years.

      Oh I didn’t realize such small capacity batteries were worth the installation effort in a home. Does that 1300 include the inverter and battery management system? What about the installation of the interconnect?

      (I rent so I don’t know much about this stuff, thank you for your time!)

        I already had the inverter and solar panels for a few years, when I added the battery pack.

        BMS: 300 EUR Battery (5 kWh): 1300 EUR

        I can then stack batteries on top of each other op to 5 batteries in total.

        If you were to get the same setup, excluding solar panels, the price would be 3200 EUR.

        I’m sure that could be done a lot cheaper though, if you only wanted a battery pack and no solar. Then you could probably get a much cheaper inverter.

        I have 2000 kWp solar setup, which roughly saves me about 300 EUR/year.
