Subsidy for small electricity storage systems in Brandenburg
Published
A subsidy programme for small electricity storage units with grants of up to 3000 euros was launched today in Brandenburg. The State Ministry of Economics and Energy supports private homeowners in purchasing a battery storage unit if they generate the electricity themselves with a photovoltaic system on their own roof.
The small-scale storage programme is initially limited to 500 subsidies. It follows the previous year's 1,000-storage programme, which, according to Energy Minister Jörg Steinbach, had met with great demand. Within only six weeks, 1,026 applications had been submitted. Funding of over 5.3 million euros was approved.
The funding programme has already been exhausted.

However, the regulatory framework remains unsuitable for the widespread market deployment of energy storage systems.
The industry figures published annually by BVES show a fundamentally positive development in retrospect for 2020 and in the forecast for 2021. Across all technologies and segments, sales in the energy storage industry grew by over 10 percent to EUR 7.1 billion in 2020.
The growth drivers are the trends towards system integration, flexible sector coupling and electromobility, particularly in the household and commercial sectors. 300,000 home storage units alone are now installed in households and ensure a secure self-supply of green energy in the electricity, heating and mobility sectors. 300,000 home storage units provide 2.3 GWh of green electricity, enough for the annual washing of more than 20,000 households or to drive an e-car around the world more than 170 times.
Urban Windelen, Federal Managing Director BVES: "An addition of over 100,000 home storage units alone in one year is a great result. And at the same time a clear signal that citizens in households, commerce and industry increasingly want to rely on storage technologies to make their energy supply secure, green and cost-efficient. Politicians should finally listen to this signal and provide the highly innovative German storage industry with a suitable framework for its products. Relying solely on grid expansion and squeezing people into an outdated energy system will not be enough for a successful energy transition."
While the household segment was able to grow disproportionately in the Corona year 2020, the industrial and commercial storage segment suffered a decline of around 20 percent due to the pandemic. Germany also continues to evade the international trend towards the increased use of large-scale storage in the system infrastructure. This market segment is stagnating at a low level. The trend towards hydrogen solutions finds a difficult environment in Germany, so that market applications on an industrial scale cannot (yet) establish themselves. In contrast, thermal storage systems are developing well and are increasingly being used in industry in particular, contributing to decarbonisation.
Overall, the industry expects a significant recovery of the storage market in the industrial segment in 2021. The drivers here are flexible sector coupling in the direction of heat, the trend towards electromobility with clever charging solutions including storage, and self-supply solutions with green electricity to green hydrogen.
"Without energy storage, the energy transition is missing something. This is becoming increasingly obvious. Technically, the industry can do pretty much anything. Various technologies for all sectors and all applications are ready and operational. Now all that needs to be done is to finally release the regulatory brakes. Especially if we want to secure and support the domestic technical excellence and high value creation of the industry in Germany and Europe." says Urban Windelen.

The occasion for the publication is the international conference ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS 2021, organized by BVES in cooperation with Energy Storage Europe and EUROSOLAR e.V.. The two-day online conference ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS 2021 will feature parallel discussion panels and workshops on current trends in the storage industry.

Results: When analysing the total annual costs, the running costs and revenues in the utilisation phase are taken into account in addition to the capital-related investment costs. The result of this full cost calculation is a relatively homogeneous cost level for all building energy standards examined. Due to the subsidies for the better standards, lower energy costs and the use of subsidies, the cost level remains relatively constant among the building energy standards. Thus, higher building energy standards up to the "KfW 40 Plus Standard" are already economically attractive today.
The influence of building energy standards can be classified as subordinate when considering total consumer spending.

The project, initiated by the Bund für Umwelt und NaturschutThe BUND Yearbook Ecological Building & Renovation, published by BUND Deutschland (BUND), helps by making owners fit for discussions with the house bank, architect, energy consultant and craftsmen. The guidebook, which will be available from November, shows what can be done and how: Based on numerous house portraits, the annual compendium helps the reader to find out which measures, building materials and technologies are best suited to their own project.
Written in an understandable way and clearly presented, with many examples and suggestions, the 244-page "BUND Yearbook 2020 - Ecological Building and Renovation" offers an all-round service for builders and renovators. The booklet offers six topics: planning, model houses, green around the house, building envelope, building services and interior. Furthermore, state funding opportunities are presented.
The 244 A4-page handbook can be purchased at a price of 8.90 Euros at major kiosks, station bookstores and BUND offices.
Or (plus 2.00 Euro shipping costs) can be ordered from the publisher: Target marketing, Gerberstr. 5f, 70178 Stuttgart, Tel. 0711/96695-0, bestellungen@ziel-marketing.de.
The complete yearbook or individual articles can be ordered via the publisher's website www.ziel-marketing.de also available as pdf (5,99 Euro).
Can the world still be saved? Anyone who sees the new documentary "Tomorrow" will believe afterwards: Yes, it is - if we only commit ourselves to it.
Global warming, exploitation of resources, population growth - our planet is dangerously close to the tipping point in many respects. This is what moved actress Mélanie Laurent and French activist Cyril Dion to make their film "Tomorrow": when they read a study predicting the collapse of our civilization in the next 40 years, they did not want to accept this scenario. So they set out: to find ideas and approaches worldwide that could inspire the population and move them to action.
