SunContract Platform Update

Transfer Surpluses Feature Added

We’re always working to improve the SunContract platform to benefit our producers and consumers. Below is one of our most recent updates you should know about:

Users can now freely choose what to do with surpluses

According to current legislation, surpluses in the case of net-metering have to be given to the energy retailer for free at the end of year. What we’re doing at SunContract with this new platform update, is that we’re allowing our customers to reuse their surplus energy from the previous calendar year in the next year, or transfer it to different households as per their decision.

This is something that has never been done before and we are happy to contribute towards a fair, transparent energy distribution paradigm.

“Our reasoning behind this update is this: if you invest in solar power plants, we expect, just like you do, that the energy you produce is yours. We don’t want it,” says SunContract CEO — Gregor Novak
