Photovoltaic panels are still an advantage in Belgium, despite the disappearance of incentives and the various measures taken by the Regions. For at least these 5 reasons.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Solar panels are always profitable<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
For private customers<\/h6>\n\n\n\n

Your investment in photovoltaic panels will pay for itself in an average of 7 years in Wallonia (despite the introduction of the prosumer tariff on October1<\/sup>, 2020), 4 years in Brussels (taking into account the partial compensation system and green certificates for 10 years), 8 years in Flanders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Brussels, the number of green certificates will be reduced for new installations from January1,<\/sup> 2021. So don’t delay investing! Soltis offers you a simulation tool to find out how much your future panels could earn you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For companies<\/h6>\n\n\n\n

Photovoltaic installations offer a rapid return on investment (ROI). Often between the ages of 4 and 7. This is made possible by subsidies from the Regions (the installation must be over 10 kWp in Wallonia, 5 kWp in Brussels and 40 kWp in Flanders), but also by the resale of the surplus electricity you inject into the grid and the granting of green certificates. Please note, however, that the number of green certificates will soon be decreasing in Wallonia and Brussels. Specifically, from September1,<\/sup> 2020 in the Walloon Region and January1,<\/sup> 2021 in Brussels. To ensure a rapid ROI, it’s best to invest without delay. Soltis analyzes your needs and requirements to develop solutions tailored to your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Photovoltaic panel prices divided by 4<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

In 2000, an average home installation would have cost you around \u20ac20,000. Today, to cover the average household consumption (4,000 kWh), you’ll only have to pay around \u20ac5,500! This 4-fold reduction in panel prices obviously also applies to companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Guaranteed savings on electricity bills<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

From the very first day your solar panels are installed, you’re guaranteed savings on your electricity bill. For private customers, the cost is estimated at a minimum of \u20ac700 per year for an installation of 14 panels. For at least 25 years!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For businesses too, the panels help reduce energy bills. Not to mention the fact that you protect yourself from market price fluctuations!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For both parties, it’s also a good way to get off the grid and move towards energy independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Solar panels have never been so efficient<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Over the past 10 years, the energy yield of photovoltaic panels has almost doubled! It can be as much as 20%, depending on the type of panel. And to get the most out of your solar system, remember to insulate your roof as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Photovoltaic panels = sustainable commitment<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Installing solar panels is a sustainable gesture for the planet, a way of moving towards carbon neutrality and meeting increasingly stringent sustainability standards for construction and renovation. For both individuals and companies. For the latter, it’s also a way of highlighting a commitment to the environment that customers are not insensitive to…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
