The Future of Solar: why invest in solar panels right now?

It's an interesting time for the solar industry. With high energy prices and an overloaded electricity grid in many countries, you might think that buying solar installations is becoming less and less attractive. But is that really the case? We can be very brief about that: no. In this blog we will tell you more, so that you can convince your (potential) customers why solar installations are a good investment right now.

Power prices vs. the falling cost of a solar installation

Power prices have fallen over the past year, but remain a hefty cost for many households. At the same time, solar panel prices have dropped dramatically since January of this year. Did you know that a solar panel is on average 50-75% cheaper than last year? That means that your customers can now become sustainable at an attractive price and benefit from a shorter payback period.

More power and higher efficiency

Let's stick very briefly to the financial aspect, because not only the price of solar panels is interesting at the moment. In fact, solar panels today also have a lot more power and a higher efficiency than years ago. This means that these new(er) panels are a lot more powerful, so your customers need fewer panels for the same output. This makes for a faster installation process and lower installation costs.

A future-proof installation

When considering the investment in a solar installation and its value in the future, it is very important to keep in mind that energy generated and consumed by yourself is an immediate savings. The more energy your customers consume themselves, the more independent they become from energy suppliers. It is therefore a good idea to look at your customer's energy needs.

What will it take to meet their needs? For example, how many panels are really needed? In addition, adding a battery is a smart, future-proof choice. Or consider bi-directional charging, where your customers use their electric car as a battery. Hydrogen also offers future prospects, although it is currently still in its infancy phase.

The importance of sustainability

The energy crisis, partly caused by international conflicts, shows that energy independence is becoming increasingly essential. Sustainability is therefore important not only for ecological reasons, but also for financial reasons and the creation of a certain degree of stability. Our suppliers are in the front line of sustainability. Let's work with them for a more sustainable future.

Conclusion

With all the changes in the solar industry, it may not seem like the time to invest in solar installations. However, today's low installation costs, high power costs and thus a short payback period, make such investments attractive right now. By adding a battery, you not only make your installation profitable for the future, but also increase your customers' independence.
