Decentralised supply models

The use of locally generated energy is a building block for a smart city and climate neutrality.

End consumers are free to choose their electricity supplier. Under certain conditions, decentralised supply models can offer them further options. End consumers can then potentially benefit from locally produced energy.

Uncertainty about future legal regulations

There is currently uncertainty regarding the scope of application of customer systems due to a ruling by the German Federal Court of Justice (BGH) from May 13, 2025. There has been no legal clarification of this to date. The BGH ruling is also significant for the tenant electricity models that have been available until now. We have compiled further information on how Stromnetz Berlin is dealing with the existing uncertainties in an overview.
