Your grid operator will not let you export surplus solar.
Your grid operator will not let you export surplus solar. You are producing clean energy and discarding it. There is a straightforward fix.
Across the Benelux, grid operators are issuing non-export conditions for rooftop and ground-mount solar installations: surplus generation cannot be pushed back to the grid, and must either be consumed or curtailed. For large commercial and industrial solar sites, this represents a significant value destruction; clean energy produced at near-zero marginal cost, wasted because the local grid has insufficient capacity to absorb it. 247 Energy systems store that surplus during peak generation hours and discharge it during evening consumption peaks, eliminating curtailment and raising the effective self-consumption rate of the solar asset. Our deployment at Apeldoorn and Rhenen in the Netherlands are a direct example of exactly this use case.
