This is exactly where the modern tenant electricity model comes into play. It combines climate protection, economic opportunity, and the efficient use of self-generated electricity within the building itself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For landlords, it presents a smart and increasingly popular way to enhance property value while generating steady revenue.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">However, before you can start selling solar power to tenants, it&#8217;s essential to understand the available models, legal requirements, contracts, and pricing structures. This article breaks down all the key steps \u2013 clearly, practically, and with real-world relevance.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Does_Selling_Solar_Power_to_Tenants_Actually_Mean\"><\/span>What Does Selling Solar Power to Tenants Actually Mean?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tenant electricity refers to a model where photovoltaic (PV) electricity is generated directly on-site and supplied to the building\u2019s residents without passing through the public grid. Landlords who sell this power directly to tenants enjoy significant benefits: the energy is consumed locally, no grid fees apply, and tenants often pay less than they would with the local utility.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">To enable this, the following are required:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">An operator for the <a href=\"https:\/\/pvprosolar.de\/en\/complete-photovoltaic-system\/\">PV system<\/a>,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">A suitable energy supply arrangement,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">A tenant&#8217;s electricity contract,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Compliance with all legal regulations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">So, the ability to sell solar power to tenants doesn\u2019t depend only on having a PV system installed \u2013 the chosen business model also plays a crucial role.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Models_of_Tenant_Electricity_Are_Available\"><\/span>What Models of Tenant Electricity Are Available?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Many landlords wonder: <i>Can I sell solar power to my tenants, and which model best fits my building?<\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">There are three established models commonly used in tenant electricity systems:<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Landlord_as_PV_System_Operator\"><\/span>1. Landlord as PV System Operator<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">In this setup, the landlord takes full responsibility for:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Installation and financing,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Billing and accounting,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Metering concepts,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Contracts with tenants.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This model offers maximum flexibility and profit potential. It\u2019s ideal for property owners who want full control over the system and revenue streams.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Contractor_Model\"><\/span>2. Contractor Model<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">An external partner (such as a utility company or service provider) becomes the system operator. The landlord receives either a lease payment or a revenue share, while the contractor handles the electricity sales.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This is a great option for landlords seeking a professional, low-maintenance approach to selling solar power to tenants, especially for commercial scalability.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Direct_Supply_Model\"><\/span>3. Direct Supply Model<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Here, the landlord sells the electricity directly to the tenants but doesn\u2019t take on the technical operator role. While less common, this approach may be suitable in projects where the PV system is already in place.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Selling_Solar_Power_to_Tenants_Legal_%E2%80%93_The_Legal_Framework\"><\/span>Is Selling Solar Power to Tenants Legal? \u2013 The Legal Framework<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The short answer is: Yes \u2013 landlords are allowed to sell solar power to tenants as long as they comply with current legislation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Key legal requirements include:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">A tenant electricity contract must be in place.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Participation must be voluntary for tenants.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Electricity supply must comply with the German Energy Industry Act (EnWG).<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Tenant electricity prices must not exceed the local basic supply rate.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">The PV system must be located on the building\u2019s rooftop or property.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">In summary, selling solar power to tenants is legal \u2013 and often far easier to implement than many landlords expect.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Is_the_Price_for_Tenant_Electricity_Determined\"><\/span>How Is the Price for Tenant Electricity Determined?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">When setting a price for selling solar power to tenants, three main factors come into play:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">The generation costs of the PV system,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">The current market price from the local utility,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">The legal price cap imposed by the Tenant Electricity Act.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Since no grid usage fees apply, tenant electricity is typically cheaper than standard tariffs \u2013 yet still priced above your own production cost. This creates a win-win situation for both landlords and tenants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">However, pricing must be handled with care:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">The price must not exceed the basic utility rate.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">It must be calculated to ensure the PV investment is covered long-term.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Efficient use of the generated electricity typically leads to a fast return on investment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Tenant_Electricity_Contract_What_Needs_to_Be_Included\"><\/span>The Tenant Electricity Contract: What Needs to Be Included?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The tenant electricity contract is the core of the model. It must be clear, transparent, and legally compliant. It should define:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">The source of the electricity,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Pricing structure,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Contract duration,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Termination conditions,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Metering and billing methods,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Rights and responsibilities of all parties.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tenants must be able to track how much PV electricity they use and how much it costs them. For landlords aiming to offer tenant electricity at a commercial standard, transparency is essential.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

Technical Requirements?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">To successfully sell solar power to tenants, the following technical elements must be in place:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">A PV system installed on the roof, garage, or outbuilding,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"
