Any questions about solar panels?


Yes, it is possible to install solar panels even if your roof is partially shaded. However, shading can reduce the overall efficiency of your system, as panels are often connected in series, and a drop in performance on one panel can affect the entire system.

To minimize this loss of production, several solutions are available:

  • Optimize the placement of the panels to avoid the most shaded areas.
  • Split the installation into multiple strings so that shading does not affect the entire production.
  • Use power optimizers, which allow each panel to operate independently from the others, thereby minimizing energy losses.

We will assess your situation and determine the best configuration to maximize your solar production.

It is absolutely possible to choose alternatives to installing solar panels on your roof. Here are a few options to consider:

  • Ground-mounted installation in your garden: If you have enough space, solar panels can be installed directly on the ground. This setup allows for optimal orientation and tilt of the panels to maximize energy production. 
     
  • Facades or exterior walls: Solar panels can be installed on the facades of your home. Although this option may result in lower energy production due to the angle of sunlight, it remains a viable alternative, especially for buildings with unsuitable roofs
     
     
  • Auxiliary structures: Consider installing panels on structures such as pergolas, carports, or verandas. These installations offer a dual function: protection from the elements and solar energy production.

Our installations are connected, so you can easily monitor your production through mobile apps. To track your consumption as well, an additional energy meter will need to be installed.

1. Get in touch with us.  

Fill out our online form with your contact details. We will need your address to carry out an initial feasibility analysis.

2. Personalized study. 

We will assess the orientation of your home, shaded areas, and the optimal placement. We will then send you an initial quote.

3. On-site visit. 

This visit allows us to adjust the quote according to your expectations and the technical specifics of your home, while advising you on the most suitable solution.

4. Installation, optimization, and guidance.  

We install your equipment in a single day (depending on the scale of the project). You will then benefit from monitoring to analyze your production and maximize your consumption / self-consumption.

Choosing a grid-connected solar installation is a cost-effective and sustainable solution. In addition to reducing your electricity bill, it improves the energy performance of your home (EPC), thereby increasing your property’s value.

Thanks to the savings made and possible incentives, the installation is generally paid off within 6 years. After that, you enjoy almost free electricity for decades, while contributing to the energy transition!

Our solar panels are guaranteed for 25 years. Their efficiency gradually decreases, with an estimated loss of between 0.3% and 0.8% per year, depending on the quality of the panels and usage conditions.

Yes! Even without direct sunlight, solar panels capture diffuse light and continue to generate electricity. Their efficiency decreases on cloudy days, typically by 50 to 70%, but they never stop producing entirely—except at night.

Rain can even be beneficial by cleaning the surface of the panels, thus improving their efficiency. To optimize production, it's important to have good panel orientation and tilt.

In short, even under a grey sky, solar energy remains a reliable and cost-effective solution!
