Without any commitment from the municipality.

Status quo

### Without a LEC

−CHF 12'000/yr

leave your territory

The solar surplus is sold back to the grid operator. Your neighbours buy it back at a higher price. The margin leaves the municipality.

WattMatch for individuals

### With a LEC

+CHF 6'000/yr

stay with your residents

WattMatch sets up and runs the LEC. Residents buy locally and pay less. No commitment from the municipality required.

Management fees 2.0 ct/kWh

The municipal lever

### Every franc invested returns more to your residents

The more the municipality engages, the stronger the leverage on local purchasing power.
