Balcony power plants, also known as mini PV systems, are becoming increasingly popular as a simple and cost-effective way to generate clean energy directly on site. More than 400,000 plug-in solar systems are currently in operation, as can be seen from the Federal Network Agency’s market master data register as of April 2nd. In the first quarter alone, over 50,000 additional systems were registered. It is likely that both the total number and new registrations are higher, as some installations are not registered and others can be reported subsequently. For comparison: nine months ago, on average for 2023, around 230,000 systems were registered with the status “in operation”.
