New in October 2026: Anker SOLIX Solarbank Max. ## How this report is made - A price is an offer a buyer could order that day. A sold-out day is no price, a failed check keeps the price before it, and a price our checks hold back as unlikely is left out. - The price change follows each model at the same shop from that shop’s first day in the month to its last, and averages the changes (a geometric mean). A shop we read on fewer than 14 days of the month is left out of it, so a shop new to us never reads as a price drop. - Only shops based in Germany count, at their own prices. A foreign shop that delivers here is left out, with its estimated delivery and tax. - No shop was read long enough this month to count in the price change. ## Data and citing Every figure here is free to reuse under CC BY 4.0, with a link to this page. - [Price changes per model and shop (CSV)](https://api.bestatbest.com/api/report?category=home-battery&market=DE&month=2026-10&format=csv) - [The whole report (JSON)](https://api.bestatbest.com/api/report?category=home-battery&market=DE&month=2026-10) Cite as: Best at Best, Home battery market report, October 2026, https://bestatbest.com/de/en/home-batteries/market-report/2026-10 [All market reports](https://bestatbest.com/de/en/home-batteries/market-report) --- This is the markdown version of https://bestatbest.com/de/en/home-batteries/market-report/2026-10: the same data, for readers that take a page in whole.
