Luxembourg photovoltaic electricity sharing initiatives

Overview

In Luxembourg, initiatives for sharing locally produced photovoltaic electricity are expanding. The city of Differdange launched an e-community platform that allows residents with solar installations to sell surplus power directly to other community members, such as households unable to install their own panels. This system provides a guaranteed feed-in tariff of 7.5 cents per kWh.

More broadly, the country is seeing an increase in models like collective self-consumption. These arrangements allow solar energy produced in residential buildings to be shared among multiple housing units, enabling occupants to use renewable energy directly while potentially avoiding additional network fees for the shared portion.
