Independence from rising
electricity prices

We ensure that you fully exploit the potential of your buildings for a sustainable and affordable energy supply. To this end, we rent your rooftops and install photovoltaic systems (with or without storage systems) at our own expense. The locally produced PV power enables your tenants to profit from attractive terms via the right marketing model for the respective asset class.

Solar power that pays off

Full feed-in
100% grid feed-in

Full feed-in
100% grid feed-in

  • All of the electricity generated by the PV system is fed into the grid
  • Remuneration in line with full feed-in tariffs as per the Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG)
  • Suitable for properties with only very low power consumption
  • Fallback option for all asset classes
  • Can be combined with battery energy storage systems for grid-friendly operation

On-site PPA
PV power only

On-site PPA
PV power only

  • The PV power is sold to building users at fixed prices
  • Building users remain responsible for any additional electricity requirements not covered by the PV power
  • Suitable for all commercial properties
  • Electricity fed into the grid is remunerated in line with partial feed-in tariffs as per the EEG
  • PV self-consumption can be optimised with battery energy storage systems or connection to charging infrastructure/heat pumps

Tenant electricity model
Full supply

Tenant electricity model
Full supply

  • Suitable for residential properties and small commercial units
  • PV power combined with grid based power in one tariff for tenants
  • Price saving due to local use of PV power
  • Attractive terms below the basic supply tariff due to tenant electricity subsidies
  • Sector coupling: possibility of integrating charging infrastructure and heat pumps into the tenant electricity model

Further optimisation
for even greater self-sufficiency

Further optimisation
for even greater self-sufficiency

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are becoming increasingly important for system integration of renewable energy into the power grid. At the same time, storage system costs have recently decreased considerably.

With large PV system outputs and low self-consumption rates, BESS represent a useful and economically viable option for optimising on-site energy usage and PV system operation in a grid-friendly way. Which is why we’re a fan.

Our project implementation process

Five steps to energy independence

1. No-charge initial assessment of your rooftops plus indicative quote

  • Survey and potential evaluation
  • Proposed module layout and estimated output
  • Presentation of results with implementation proposal

2. Conclusion of a rooftop lease agreement with project development authorisation

  • Basis for no-charge project development
  • Mutual rights and obligations clarified
  • Terms of rooftop lease set out

3. Project planning and site preparation

  • On-site visit and detailed planning
  • Inspection of mains connection, structural analysis, examination of insurance specifications
  • Preparation and approval of implementation plans

4. Construction phase

  • Site setup
  • Ongoing project monitoring by empact staff
  • Acceptance and final inspection

5. Commissioning

  • Clear project completion documentation
  • Initiation of operation and monitoring
  • Process of selling electricity commences

“The people at empact are real experts who understand the need to get all stakeholders fully on board to ensure a successful PV rollout.”
