What is a Local Electricity Community (LEG)?

Since 2026, Swiss electricity supply law allows Local Electricity Communities (LEG): neighbors join together to share locally produced electricity — such as solar power from their roof — over the public grid, at reduced grid fees.

And a virtual ZEV (vZEV)?

In a virtual ZEV (vZEV), multiple parties behind neighboring connections share solar power — without dedicated lines, billed via the grid operator's smart metering systems.

QuartierWatt guides you from eligibility check through founding to monthly billing — contracts, tariffs and invoices included.

Frequently asked questions

How much does the eligibility check cost?

Checking your address is free and requires no account.

Who can found a LEG?

In principle, all end consumers and producers in the same neighborhood or municipality. The eligibility check shows which form is possible at your address.

Do I need my own solar installation?

No. You can join without your own installation and buy local solar power from your neighbors.

How are invoices generated?

QuartierWatt generates billing automatically from metering data and produces Swiss QR invoices.
