KlimaBonus – Un soutien financier pour vous

Photovoltaics – Producing electricity with solar energy and taking climate action.

What are the conditions for receiving Klimabonus subsidies?

Two options are available for this Klimabonus subsidy.

• • Investment grant of 20% for the installation of photovoltaic panels operated in “feed-in mode” and guaranteed feed-in tariff. Self-consumption is possible under this option.
    • This subsidy is capped at 500 €/kW _p.
    • Valid for invoices dated from 2022-01-01 until 2025-12-31.
    • I receive an feed-in tariff that is guaranteed by the state for a period of 15 years.
    • My feed-in tariff depends on the connection date of the installation, for more details see page « Financial subsidy programmes for sustainable housing and mobility » in the section « Feed-in tariffs » of the page « Subsidy programmes for sustainable housing and mobility ».
  • Investment aid of 50% for the installation of photovoltaic panels operated in “self-consumption mode” and renunciation of the guaranteed feed-in tariff.
    • This subsidy is capped at 1.250 €/kW_p.
    • Valid for orders dated from 2022-01-01 until 2025-12-31.
    • My electricity storage (net capacity) is subsidised if:

for a single-family home

1. the output of my system is > 4 kW_p et
2. my storage capacity is ≤ 1,5 kWh/kW_p with a max. of 12 kWh.

for an apartment building

1. the output of my system is > 1,5 kW_p per residential unit and
2. my storage capacity is ≤ 1,5 kWh/kW_p with an max. of 9 kWh per residential unit.

for a building that is not used for residential purposes

• • my storage capacity is ≤ 1 kWh/kW_p.
  • I renounce the guaranteed feed-in tariff for the lifetime of the installation. This option constitutes a firm and irrevocable commitment.
  • I must conclude a buy-back contract with a supplier for the surplus electricity. In most cases a individual/collective self-consumption or energy community is set up.
  • for a photovoltaic installation whose order date is between 2023-01-01 and 2024-09-30 and the invoice is issued by 2025-12-31; an increased investment subsidy of 62,5% is granted for the installation of the solar panels, provided that the applicant waives the feed-in tariff guarantee. This grant is limited to a maximum of 1.562,5 €/kW_p.
• For the tax year 2022, the income from installations > 10 kW_p are taxable.
• For the tax year 2023, the income from installations > 30 kW_p are taxable.
• An additional photovoltaic installation (on the same roof, façade or integrated into the building envelope) is eligible if its injection to the grid takes place at least 2 years after the first injection of the previous installation.
