☀️ Solar panels in Slovenia: what do I get for the power I feed in?

The short answer

If you produce more than you use, the surplus goes into the grid. How you are paid for it depends on the national scheme.

📜 The rules in Slovenia

Solar panels

Annual net metering only continues for self-supply systems registered by 31 December 2023. Systems joining from 2024 are billed without netting: network charges apply to all power taken from the grid. Systems up to 50 kW can connect via a simplified procedure.
