Installing solar panels in France is a promising solution for reducing electricity costs and contributing to environmental sustainability. However, before starting, it is important to review legal aspects, obtain the necessary permits, and take advantage of government subsidies.
France remains one of the top performing countries when it comes to the development of Rooftop solar policy and practices, but deliverables still need to be achieved. France's photovoltaic (PV) policies are developed within the National Low Carbon Strategy and the Energy Programme Decree.
Simplify the state's administrative procedures around putting panels on homes, cut VAT on it, and facilitate interest-free loans to help bear the cost of installation, advises Gaiddon. DualSun's Mouterde says that, above all, France needs more qualified panel installers.
In some cases, the installation may be prohibited or require specific solutions to minimize visual impact. France offers an interest-free loan (Eco-PTZ) to finance solar panel installation projects. This measure helps homeowners reduce financial burdens without paying interest.
