Payback — model

The 8 kWp scenario above uses the cantonal model assumptions: indicative output, 40 % self-consumption, hypothetical purchase and export tariffs, installed costs of CHF 2 200 to 2 800/kWp and assumed Pronovo support of CHF 360 to 400/kWp. It is not a local quote. Recalculate using your roof, hourly demand, contracts and confirmed grants; include fees, losses and replacements.

Your roof: Satigny

For a detached house, check roof condition, shading and electrical capacity before signing. A single owner’s decision still requires a technical roof survey.

In all cases, the useful surface area is almost always less than the gross surface area announced. Skylights, chimneys, setbacks, shading and future maintenance needs must be integrated before talking about final power.

Define included and excluded work during the technical survey. Include the constraints identified during the survey in the quotation.

Exposure and access: Satigny

Request a survey of nearby shading and the horizon, with monthly generation estimates. Compare options for your building using the same weather data and loss assumptions.

Measure usable roof area with obstacles and required clearances included. Value surplus using the confirmed export contract, with guarantees of origin accounted for separately.

Full cost and grants: Satigny

The displayed scenario uses an indicative installed cost for 8 kWp. A quote must specify equipment, roofing and electrical work, connection, inspections and fees before deducting confirmed grants.

Programmes depend on the municipality and available funds. Obtain written confirmation of amounts, timing, limits and combined support for your address before including them in the budget.

Check the simultaneous consumption used to estimate avoided electricity purchases. Specify fall protection and access for installation and maintenance.

Output must be assessed for the actual roof, its orientation, shading and condition. Tariffs depend on the grid, product and contract; a cantonal average does not replace your bill.

Building procedures: Satigny

Request plans, equipment references and service boundaries before accepting a price. Value surplus using the confirmed export contract, with guarantees of origin accounted for separately.

A serious estimate specifies who prepares the announcement, who manages the connection, who follows the administrative back and forth and how any comments are absorbed into the planning.

In Geneva, check Pronovo, the SIG 2026 solar premium and municipal aid before signing. If the timeline is poorly managed, you lose time and sometimes value on helpers.

Request a technical site survey before relying on a sales estimate. Distinguish avoided purchase costs from the tariff paid for exported surplus.

Compare installers: Satigny

When comparing installers, check the heritage and visibility constraints. Then review the tests and documents planned for handover. These details matter more than the advertised price alone.

The quality gaps are quickly seen in the annexes: level of technical inspection, self-consumption assumptions, electrical diagram, service after commissioning and clarity of service limits.

Before choosing an installer, ask who attends the site after a fault, the travel charges and stated response time. A registered office address does not establish service availability for your building.

Reserve space and access for inspections and future replacements. Keep the simulation assumptions so results can be compared after commissioning.

Frequently asked questions: Satigny

Prepare these questions about the roof, costs, storage and procedures before comparing offers.

What should I check during the roof survey?

Compare quotation items for the same scope of work and supply. Compare mounting and removal arrangements against the condition of the roof covering.

How should I compare self-consumption and exports?

Compare avoided purchase costs and surplus export prices with your hourly demand. Self-consumption reduces purchases when generation is used on site; the choice also depends on full cost and losses.

How should I assess adding a battery?

First compare an option without storage for the same demand. Simulate generation and available surplus before choosing a battery. Identify the service contact and stated response times after commissioning.

Which procedures should I confirm for this building?

The procedure depends on the plot, building and integration. Present the plan to the municipality to confirm notification or permit requirements and any protection constraints before ordering.

What should I request from installers?

When comparing installers, check access to the installation site. Then check a realistic installation timetable for the season. These details matter more than the advertised price alone.
