Market your solar power profitably — we optimise your revenue streams.

Up to 6x higher revenue Grid feed-in yields only 5–12 Rp./kWh with no planning security. Active marketing via ZEV achieves 15–22 Rp./kWh and exchange peaks reach up to 80 Rp./kWh, adding up to six-figure CHF amounts over 20 years.
ZEV locks in stable returns ZEV secures plannable revenue for the full installation lifetime. vZEV (since 2025) extends this across multiple properties without physical cabling.
PPAs guarantee 10–20 year prices Power Purchase Agreements lock in fixed off-take prices for 10–20 years for large installations from 500 kWp, providing maximum planning security for balance sheet planning.
Active portfolio management included Forecast optimisation based on weather data, balancing energy market participation, and monthly revenue reporting are part of the ongoing service.
150+ installations, proven expertise With 50 MWp installed capacity, we know Swiss energy markets from hands-on experience and recommend the optimal marketing mix for your installation.

Industrial and commercial PV installations frequently generate more power than the operation itself consumes. Feeding this surplus into the grid without a strategy means lost revenue potential: the electricity works feed-in tariff typically pays 5–12 Rp./kWh and offers no planning security over a 20-year installation lifetime. For maximum economic viability, we structure your marketing strategy on a turnkey basis — from selecting the right marketing channel through to ongoing portfolio management.

Why your marketing strategy determines economic viability

Swiss energy law has opened new opportunities since 2025: the revised Energy Act (EnG) with the Mantelerlass establishes binding minimum supply obligations for grid operators and extends the ZEV model to the virtual ZEV (vZEV) and the Local Electricity Community (LEG, since 1 January 2026). At the same time, spot market prices of 40–80 Rp./kWh during peak hours are a structural feature of the Swiss market — not an exception.

5–12 Rp./kWh

Typical grid feed-in tariff — set annually, no long-term planning security

15–22 Rp./kWh

ZEV internal price — plannable revenue over the full installation lifetime

up to 80 Rp./kWh

Exchange peak values — direct trading participates in market prices

Whoever defines the marketing strategy today determines the economic performance of their installation for the next 20 years. We analyse your situation — installation size, self-consumption rate, grid area, risk appetite — and recommend the optimal combination of available channels.

Marketing channels compared

Four marketing options are available — individually or in combination. The right mix depends on your installation size and risk tolerance.

Which marketing channel suits your installation?

Criterion	Grid Feed-In	Active Marketing
Typical yield (Rp./kWh)	5–12 (grid feed-in)	15–22 (ZEV) or up to 80 (exchange)
Planning security	Low — set annually	High — long-term contracts available
Minimum installation size	None	ZEV: from site use; PPA: from 500 kWp
Administrative effort	Minimal	We handle portfolio management in full
Market price risk	None (but no upside either)	PPA: no risk; exchange: upside with management
Best suited for	Small installations or as starting point	Industrial installations from ~100 kWp for active marketing

Grid feed-in suits residual volumes after self-consumption optimisation. ZEV is the most attractive option for sites with multiple electricity consumers: you achieve 15–22 Rp./kWh instead of 5–12 Rp./kWh, while your consumers pay less than the grid rate. Exchange trading offers upside potential through spot market participation but requires professional portfolio management. PPAs secure large installations from 500 kWp fixed revenues for 10–20 years — as with the Balteschwiler project at 3,092 kWp with 1.9 GWh annual surplus channelled into structured marketing.

Further information on ZEV, vZEV and LEG as the legal framework for site solutions is available on our ZEV & LEG solutions page. Details on the underlying asset — your PV installation — can be found under Photovoltaics for Industry & Commerce.

Our marketing process

How we manage your energy marketing

Analysis & strategy selection

We analyse your installation, self-consumption rate, grid area and risk appetite — and recommend the optimal marketing mix.

Load profile analysis and self-consumption rate assessment
Comparison of grid feed-in vs ZEV vs PPA vs direct trading
Economic viability calculation for each option

Contract structuring

We structure contracts with off-takers, grid operators, and trading platforms — legally sound and aligned with your installation's lifetime.

ZEV contracts with site users
PPA negotiation with commercial and industrial clients
Grid registration and feed-in tariff clarification

Technical integration

We integrate metering systems and smart meters that transparently capture feed-in volumes, self-consumption, and marketing flows.

Smart meter integration for ZEV billing
Real-time monitoring of energy flows
Interface to exchange trading platform

Ongoing portfolio management

We continuously optimise your feed-in volumes using weather forecasts, load profiles and market prices — and deliver monthly revenue reports.

Forecast optimisation based on weather data
Balancing energy market participation where technically eligible
Monthly reporting: revenues, market prices, economic performance
