District MyK promotes balcony power plants: simply save electricity and reduce CO2

A new step in the energy transition: Balcony power plants should sustainably strengthen households

From August 1, 2024, households in the Mayen-Koblenz district have the opportunity to benefit from tax money through a new funding program. The district supports the installation of balcony power plants, which are characterized by their simple handling and contribute to actively shaping the energy transition on site. This commitment shows how local initiatives can contribute to reducing CO2 emissions.

What are the balcony power plants and how do they work?

balcony power plants are small, tackled photovoltaic systems that can be connected directly to a socket. They are characterized by their compact dimensions and simple installation, which makes them accessible to many households. The energy generated can be used to reduce your own electricity costs and thus reduce the economic stress on households. An important aspect of this technology is that it enables users to contribute to self -supply with regenerative electricity.

funding from the district: This is how it works

The subsidy program, which was created as part of the municipal investment program for climate protection and innovation (KIPKI), is available for a total of 150,000 euros for the support of balcony power plant purchases. Households can apply for up to 33 percent of the acquisition costs, but a maximum of 150 euros. However, it is true that the devices are only eligible if they are acquired and registered from August 1, 2024.

an important signal for the community

The initiative of the Mayen-Koblenz district is significant because it not only facilitates access to the use of renewable energies, but also creates awareness of sustainability and CO2 reduction in the population. The subsidy program, which runs by March 31, 2026 or the financial exhaustion of the budget, is an example of how municipal measures can contribute to the base to improve quality of life and to promote climate protection.

conclusion: one step in the right direction

The new support program for balcony power plants is more than just a financial incentive: it shows the endeavor of the district of Mayen-Koblenz, actively supporting the energy transition and offering every household an easy way to produce regenerative electricity. With the hope that many citizens perceive this offer, the path is paved for a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future.
