Grid fees from 2029
AgNes: grid fees in Germany are being reorganised.
AgNes is the procedure in which the Bundesnetzagentur, Germany’s Federal Network Agency, is restructuring electricity grid fees. According to its current position, the decision is to be adopted in 2026 and apply from 2029. For businesses with higher consumption, the peak load will then carry more weight, and a battery storage system can absorb it.
Cut-off date for storage: Under the German rule § 118 Abs. 6 EnWG (Energy Industry Act), storage systems that go into operation by August 2029 are exempt from grid fees for 20 years. Under the draft, this exemption only remains if the storage system has been firmly ordered before the decision. The planned date for this is 1 January 2027.
It is still a draft. You can already plan for it: we advise you on PV and battery storage.
