Yet PV is artificially held back by very unfavourable feed-in regulation. Really a pity as the potential is so high.

Not so high without an adequate storage.

I am talking about feed-in from home users, which would work largely without storage if it was allowed to feed the excess into the grid during the day (like it is possible in most other EU countries).

But due to bureocratic hurdles this is basically not allowed in Portugal and the thus required in-home batteries are largely unaffordable by the relatively low income households here.

I think that was the case before but changed last year. I know people who sell the excess during the day. Not sure if you are from Portugal but here is a link in Portuguese https://www.adene.pt/venda-do-excedente-no-autoconsumo-simplificada/

Thanks for the link. I'll have a closer look at this.
