Q CELLS starts selling green electricity

Q CELLS’ Q.ENERGY service delivers electricity - drawn from 100% clean energy sources in Germany and Austria - to customers, enabling them to power their homes in a green and environmentally friendly manner.

Q.ENERGY offers two energy tariffs to customers: Basic and Smart. The Q.ENERGY Basic tariff gives customers a stable monthly fee for a whole year while they participate in Q CELLS’ green power community. Both the monthly basic fee and price per kWh are calculated based on the consumer’s postcode.

Smart tariff priced on the hourly price of green energy

The Q.ENERGY Smart tariff is based on the hourly price of green energy. Customers of this tariff can view electricity prices 24 hours in advance, and then freely make the decision to, for example, use their washing machine or charge their electric vehicle. Customers of both tariffs do not need to have their own solar PV or storage system installed; they simply sign up with Q CELLS and enjoy competitively priced green energy.

Lower energy bills through proactively altering consumption patterns

Electricity prices in Germany can fluctuate quite dramatically over the course of the day, and also region by region, so based on a consumer’s postcode, Q.ENERGY Smart calculates a base monthly cost of electricity that includes all service fees. The customer receives this as a flat monthly bill, with additional electricity consumption charges levied based on hourly usage patterns. This tariff enables the consumer to take greater control of their energy bills, which can be significantly lowered through proactively altering consumption patterns to maximize costs savings.

Q CELLS will provide certificates to Q.ENERGY customers that signal that the electricity they are consuming is certifiably green. (HCN)
