Installation of solar panels in Geneva

Solar panel installation in Geneva

On the rooftops of Geneva, the sun shines for an average of 2000 hours each year, a resource that too many homeowners leave untapped. An installation of solar panels in Geneva transforms every ray into concrete savings on your energy bill. At Avenir Rénovations, our company supports homeowners in the canton in this shift towards renewable energy, from feasibility study to commissioning.

Is installing solar panels in Geneva a profitable investment?

Installing solar panels in Geneva addresses a dual urgency, ecological and financial. At Avenir Rénovations, we integrate each project into a comprehensive approach to energy renovation, supported by the canton and programs led by SIG. Your local electricity production reduces your bill and increases the value of your property in the long term.

Reduce your dependence on the electrical grid

Every kilowatt-hour produced on your roof is a kilowatt-hour you no longer purchase from the grid. In summer, a period of high production, solar installations cover a good part of your domestic consumption. Self-consumption becomes your best ally to stabilize your energy expenses against the price fluctuations of the Swiss market. The unused surplus can also be injected into the SIG grid, for compensation that complements your energy savings.

Custom solar solutions for every home

A sloped roof, a flat terrace, or a simple outdoor space to enhance, each Geneva home requires a different configuration. Our team studies the best possible installation and proposes, depending on the case, classic roof panels or a solar pergola designed by Avenir Rénovations to enhance your outdoor spaces. This technical flexibility ensures optimal production, regardless of your roof type.

Essential criteria for sizing your solar installation

The sizing of your solar installation avoids two common pitfalls, under-sizing that limits your savings and over-sizing that burdens your investment. Two parameters determine the ideal power in kWc, the available roof area and your actual electricity needs. The Geneva climate, with its darker winters, also influences the final choice of installed power for your future installations. A precise study is necessary before any quote, carried out at no cost by our Project Manager during their on-site visit.

The south or southwest orientation, the roof slope, and the absence of shading affect the performance of your photovoltaic panels. An old or poorly insulated roof may limit this potential, a roof renovation carried out by Avenir Rénovations addresses this issue before installation. Our building professional assesses the potential of many roofs during free visits and advises you on the best course of action.

Your electricity bill from the past twelve months reveals your annual consumption, the basis for any reliable calculation for your solar energy project. Several household factors increase power needs and deserve your attention before choosing the size of the installation.

  • the presence of a heat pump for heating or hot water
  • the installation of a charging station for electric vehicles
  • the number of occupants and the household's consumption habits
  • a future extension or renovation project

These criteria guide our Project Manager towards the most suitable power, generally between 4 and 6 kWc for a standard Geneva household.

What budget to plan for your solar panels in Geneva?

Two solar projects never cost the same, even with identical power. The configuration of your roof, the complexity of the electrical connection, and the choice of associated equipment, storage battery or charging station, vary the final bill from one project to another. The accessibility of the site also influences the installation cost depending on the nature of your roofs.

Avenir Rénovations takes care of the entire project, from the installation of photovoltaic panels to the final connection, without scattered subcontracting. Our online simulator gives you a first free estimate in just a few clicks, even before the visit from our Project Manager. Our company then offers you a tailored quote within 8 days, adjusted to your project.
