Quotes obtained on average3.2
Price spread, equal system€6,000
Battery consideration47%
Independent platform in top-3 sources

Price opacity (58%) overtook technical complexity (51%) as the #1 decision barrier for the first time. BYD awareness reached 71%, but trust-to-install lags at 34% — third-party scoring closes the gap (+19pt). Quote comparison is the killer use case: 3.2 quotes per buyer, spreads up to €6,000 for equivalent systems.

For manufacturers: investing in pricing-transparency education yields more brand equity than price promotion.

Aware net metering ended82%
Plan a battery within 12 months31%
Postponed after sales calls44%
Median budget vs median quote€4,800 / €6,200

The retrofit wave is real but slower than feared — 44% postponed after telemarketing contact. The median battery budget (€4,800) sits 23% below the median quote (€6,200) — the expectation gap is the sales gap.

For manufacturers: in the Netherlands, education-led content is the only high-conversion channel left.

Strongly prefer German content68%
Pay premium for local service54%

German buyers are markedly more conservative: decision cycles 40% longer, certifications and service outrank price. The local-service premium is real: 54% pay 8–15% more for proven German service. Content vacuum: only 2 of the top-20 ‘Speicher Kosten’ results are independent platforms.

For manufacturers: enter Germany with proof of localisation — parts, certification, German support — before price.
