Dutch solar panels

I''m living in the Rotterdam area of the Netherlands, and it is about time to invest in Solar Panels. But since the dutch solar market is quite saturated, I can''t see the trees through the forrest anymore (a dutch expression for having too many options) So my questions: Which system integrates best with HA (local, no cloud) ?

Solar curtailment on dynamic prices

My solar system is connected to a zigbee relay with power monitoring. The relay was installed for the purpose of low cost solar curtailment in mind and power monitoring to boot without anoying integrations. I''ve implemented a simple automation to curtail solar power that costs more than it saves. Net metering in the Netherlands

Energy Cost calculation in The Netherlands with "saldering",

Hi all, struggling with the configuration for energy cost calculation in the case of solar energy production and the so-called "saldering".
