In Germany, the energy industry is mainly run by large energy companies. Although the liberalization of the electricity market allows us to choose our own electricity supplier, we still remain dependent. This is because municipal utilities and electricity providers also get their electricity from coal-fired power plants supplied by companies such as RWE. This means that we are still exposed to unpredictable fluctuations in electricity prices on the electricity exchange.
In contrast, solar power can be generated much more cheaply and is not subject to price fluctuations on the electricity exchange. By installing your own photovoltaic system on your roof, you can ensure that your electricity comes 100% from renewable sources. Become your own energy supplier and make your own decisions about the future of your energy supply.
