Solar panels in Groningen

What should you take into account?

To achieve maximum energy yield with solar panels in Groningen, it is important to consider a number of specific challenges:

  • Limited space
  • Shadow
  • A possible building permit

Limited space, shadow and permits

Homeowners in Haarlem often deal with limited roof surface. Because multiple homes share the same roof surface, the available space for solar panels per home is smaller than in other parts of the Netherlands.

Due to high-rise buildings and objects such as chimneys, there is more shadow formation on roofs in Haarlem than on roofs of detached homes in an undeveloped environment. To get the maximum return from solar panels, this must be taken into account when designing the system.

Finally, homes in Haarlem may be monuments or protected cityscapes. If you want to have solar panels installed, you must take into account applying for a permit for this.

How do I get more yield from solar panels in Groningen?

If you want to equip your home in Groningen with solar panels, it is important that you first check whether solar panels may be installed on your home. If your home is not a monument or protected cityscape, you can have solar panels installed without a permit.

Is the roof of my home large enough for solar panels?

Many homes in Groningen share the same roof. In such cases, homeowners together form a VvE. This means the space for solar panels is limited because the available roof surface is shared with multiple homeowners. To get the maximum return from the available roof surface, it is important to use the right solar panels. The higher the efficiency of the solar panels, the higher the energy yield per square meter of roof surface.

Solar panel shadow

When installing solar panels in Groningen, proper consideration must be given in advance to any shadow on the solar panels. By placing the solar panels as optimally as possible and by choosing inverters that can minimize the negative effects of shadow, our advisors in Groningen ensure maximum return from your solar panels.
