About
Founded in 2011, Solarbonstetten is a ngo headquartered in Bonstetten, Switzerland with approximately 1-10 employees specializing in Solar.
Solarbonstetten is a non-profit, volunteer-run association dedicated to promoting solar energy in Bonstetten and the Knonauer Amt region. The organization manages Local Electricity Communities (LEGs), which connect solar producers and consumers within the same transformer district to exchange electricity directly. Members benefit from lower electricity rates (20.31 Rp./kWh vs. 26.42 Rp./kWh standard rate) and support local renewable energy production. The association coordinates registrations, represents communities to the grid operator EKZ, and handles annual billing. Solar producers receive 12 Rp./kWh premium for LEG-supplied electricity. The organization operates solar installations on local school buildings and residential properties, with plans to establish up to 13 LEGs across different zones in Bonstetten.
