Romande Energie shifts solar power buyback pricing to 15-minute intervals in 2027

(AWP Alliance News) - Romande Energie plans to cut electricity tariffs by about 6% in 2027 for most customers on its distribution network, citing lower energy procurement costs and broadly stable grid charges. The utility will shift compensation for electricity fed into the grid to a 15-minute pricing model in 2027, aligning payments more closely with market supply-demand signals.

For solar installations up to 150 kWp, remuneration will track hourly market prices with a minimum-income backstop via a compensation mechanism. The group will keep its Guarantees of Origin buyback terms unchanged from 2026 at 1.5 centimes per kWh in winter quarters, 0.5 centimes per kWh in summer quarters.
