How do I make the right choice?

• Log in to Mijn Fluvius and compare your injection (what you put on the grid) with your take-off (what you take from the grid).
  This shows you how much energy you are not consuming yourself and how much of a buffer a battery can provide for you.
• Consider your future plans (e.g., electric vehicle, heat pump)
• Decide whether you primarily want to save money or also want to invest in energy independence
