• Tariff zoning An averaged feed-in tariff is calculated for all output ranges up to the installed PV generator output. The entire PV generator output is first divided up between the individual feed-in connections or zones and then added up.

• Graduation of tariffs With the graduated tariff, the feed-in tariff changes abruptly when a power limit is exceeded. This means that the feed-in tariff results directly from the installed PV output. Example Feed-in rate 1: from 0 kW ; 1 EUR/kWh Feed-in rate 2: from 30 kW ; 0,5 EUR/kWh PV generator power: 50 kWp Feed-in tariff paid out Tariff zoning: 0,8 €/kWh $\left( \frac{30 \text{ kW}}{50 \text{ kWp}} \cdot 1 \text{ €/kWh} + \frac{20 \text{ kW}}{50 \text{ kWp}} \cdot 0,5 \text{ €/kWh} = 0,8 \text{ €/kWh} \right)$ Tariff graduation: 0,5 €/kWh

1. Feed-in compensation Only the directly fed PV energy is reimbursed.
2. Self-consumption
The PV energy generated that is not directly fed into the grid is taken into account. Charging of the battery is also considered as self-consumption. When you select Delivery, the values are not taken into account as revenues, but as costs.
3. Basic compensation The total PV energy generated is taken into account.
