While solar panels have already been subject to a 0% VAT rate for several years, a home battery is still taxed at 21% VAT. However, in some cases, this VAT can be reclaimed through the Dutch…

The sun keeps shining, but the rules are changing in The Netherlands. With feed-in costs and the end of the net metering scheme on January 1, 2027, it’s becoming increasingly important to use your solar power wisely and store it in a home battery.
A home battery makes this easy. No complicated settings, no planning, no worries. The system takes care of everything automatically. You use your own power when you need it and only draw from the grid when absolutely necessary, completely hassle-free.
The main reasons to choose a home battery are simple: you gain more control over your energy costs, become less dependent on the grid, the government, and energy suppliers, and in some cases can even earn money automatically with your battery.
You also don’t have to buy everything at once. A home battery is modular and easy to expand, so you can start small and scale up later. This also applies to emergency power supply.
With an OptimaSolar home battery, you can use your self-generated solar power later, significantly reduce or even eliminate feed-in costs, become less dependent on the grid, trade fully automatically on the energy market, and protect yourself against rising electricity rates. In addition, you contribute to reducing grid congestion and support the energy transition.
Everything is automatically managed by the battery’s smart energy management system. You won’t notice a thing, except on your energy bill.
OptimaSolar installs home batteries from Enphase, APsystems, SolarEdge, Sigenergy, and Growatt. We have a suitable solution for every solar panel system.
A 5 kWh home battery is available from €3,450 including VAT and installation. A Fiat or a BMW, you’ll get to Paris either way.
No need to use your savings immediately. Through the National Heat Fund, you can responsibly finance up to €8,500. The interest rate is fixed for the duration of the loan, and for a combined income under €60,000, it can even be 0%.
Planning to trade on the energy market with your home battery via a dynamic energy contract through OptimaSolar? You may even reclaim the VAT. We guide you through the entire process. Even if you don’t trade with your battery, the dynamic energy contract with competitive feed-in tariffs is still highly interesting.
