Balkonsolarmodule: Technik, Wirtschaftlichkeit und Lobbyismus
Marcus Vietzke
It’s a cute idea: put a small photovoltaic module on the balcony or hang it from the balcony rail, plug it into a socket and there you are: self-generated solar electricity flows into the network that can be used directly in the home. Marcus Vietzke talks about what is required to develop balcony modules of this type and explains how these “plug-in generating devices” work.
