Aldi balcony power plant: Consumer advice center is suing for misleading performance information

According to a report by www.giga.de, the consumer advice center in Saxony is looking into the balcony power plant that Aldi is currently offering. This is about the advertising that advertises the balcony power plant with an output of 600 watts, although the actual output of the solar cells supplied is only 350 watts. The consumer advice center considers this advertising to be misleading and has filed a lawsuit against Aldi.
Aldi's balcony power plant offers an output of just 350 watts, although it is advertised as 600 watts. This discrepancy misleads buyers, which led the consumer advice center in Saxony to file a lawsuit against Aldi for an injunction. Experts recommend that the solar panels should exceed the power of the inverter to ensure more efficient energy production. The Aldi balcony power plant is considered oversized and inadequate for energy production and is only suitable for those users who have very limited space. Everyone else is recommended to use larger solar cells in order to generate more energy in the long term.
