For years, Dutch households enjoyed generous benefits from the net-metering (salderingsregeling) scheme. Excess solar power could simply be fed back into the grid and credited at the same price as electricity purchased. But with the policy set to phase out in 2027, the way homeowners use their solar energy is about to change — and many are already preparing for it.

The Dutch government has confirmed that net-metering will gradually decrease starting in 2027, eventually ending completely. This means homeowners will earn much less for the surplus solar energy they feed back to the grid.
At the same time:
· Grid congestion continues to affect many regionsTogether, these factors create one clear trend: Storing your own solar energy will soon be more valuable than exporting it.
As the policy shifts, Dutch homeowners are asking two important questions:
“How can I avoid losing value from my solar system?”
“How can I reduce my dependence on the grid?”
A home energy storage system solves both. With a battery installed, your home can:
· Store excess solar power instead of selling it cheaplyThis shift is fueling strong growth in residential storage adoption — especially three-phase systems, which are ideal for modern Dutch households.
As Dutch energy needs evolve, Angile Energy’s ePowerCUBE AIOT Series offers one of the most reliable and intelligent solutions for future-ready homes.
· Three-Phase Power Support - Perfect for homes with heat pumps, EV chargers, and high-power appliances.
· Modular Capacity from 5–30 kWh/cluster - The maximum capacity of this system supports up to 180kWh with 36 battery pack. Homeowners can start small and expand as their energy needs grow.
· AIOT Smart Energy Management - The system automatically prioritizes your solar energy, shifts loads during peak hours, and helps reduce electricity bills without manual input.
· Compatible With Most Solar Inverters - Easy integration with existing solar installations in the Netherlands.
· Safety-Driven Design - Built with advanced protection, ensuring long-term reliability for Dutch households.
Problem 1: Lower returns from solar once net-metering ends
✔ Solution: ePowerCUBE stores your excess power for personal use, preventing energy loss.
Problem 2: High evening electricity prices
✔ Solution: Use stored solar energy after sunset to avoid paying peak rates.
Problem 3: Unstable grid or local congestion
✔ Solution: Your home becomes more self-reliant, reducing stress on the grid and protecting you from fluctuations.
Problem 4: Expanding energy needs (EV, heat pump, electric cooking)
✔ Solution: Three-phase battery output supports all modern home loads smoothly.
With policy changes ahead, 2025–2027 will be defining years for solar homeowners in the Netherlands. Adding a smart energy storage system like ePowerCUBE AIOT ensures your home stays efficient, independent, and ready for the future.
