Selling solar power

If you produce more electricity than you need, you can sell the surplus energy to us at market price.

We will buy your surplus electricity when

  • the capacity of your microgeneration installation does not exceed 100 kW
  • you have an electricity contract with Helen in the site where the microgeneration installation is operated

The basic charge EUR 0.00/mth and the service charge 0.3 c/kWh. All prices are subject to VAT at 0%. If the customer is registered for VAT, the value added tax at the current rate shall be added to the prices.

Prices for small-scale production

If you have microgeneration equipment, such as solar panels, you can draw up a contract with us on selling electricity that is surplus to your needs. The basic charge EUR 0.00/mth and the service charge 0.3 c/kWh. All prices are subject to VAT at 0%. If the customer is registered for VAT, the value added tax at the current rate shall be added to the prices.

The reimbursement for the electricity you have sold will primarily be included in your future electricity bills. If the amount of reimbursement exceeds the consumption at your delivery site, the reimbursement is transferred to future bills. Reimbursements exceeding EUR 150 for consumer customers and EUR 500 for corporate customers are paid to the customer's bank account.

Connecting microgeneration equipment to the network

The local distribution systen operator must always be notified when microgeneration equipment is connected to the network. This ensures electrical safety also in network fault situations.

When switching electricity suppliers, the new contract can take effect at the earliest two weeks (15 days) after the order date.

We ensure that your microgeneration contract starts as soon as possible so that the contract is ready when the deployment starts.
