All premiums and tax benefits to which you are entitled

For several energy-efficient investments in your home, you are eligible for a premium. In this article, we want to list the various premiums and tax benefits linked to our products/services, so that you definitely do not miss out on this financial support.

The different premiums

1. Solar panel premium

For installing solar panels, you will still receive a premium of up to 40% of the amount until 2025 .

For calculation purposes, for the first 4 kWp on your roof, a premium of €150 is granted, and from 4 kWp onwards you get a premium of €75 per kWp. The kWp of an installation is calculated by adding up the total Wp of the solar panels. Each 1000 Wp is equal to 1 kWp.

Note: The solar panel premium is only applicable for buildings built before 2014. Buildings whose year of construction is 2014 or later are not eligible for this premium.

The premium amount is a maximum of €750 and depends on the total installed kilowatt peak of your solar panel system. You will receive € 150 per kWp for an installation with a capacity between 0 and 4 kWp and € 75 extra per kWp for installations with a capacity up to 6 kWp.

The premium amount is no more than 40% of the investment cost and decreases by a quarter each year. On Jan. 1, 2025, the premium expires.

Example: You installed a PV system with 14 385 Wp solar panels in 2023. So the installation has a capacity of 5390 Wp or 5 kWp.

For the first 4 kWp you get €150 per kWp: (150 x 4) and for the^5th kWp you get €75 = So the total premium is €675.

Tip:Our calculator [AD1] calculates exactly how much your premium will be on your PV system.

2. Home battery premium

You also get a premium when buying or leasing a home battery! The premium for a home battery is only valid until March 31, 2023. If you still want to be there, the date on your inspection certificate must be no later than March 31, 2023.

The amount of the home battery premium depends on the capacity of your home battery. The premium is up to €1,725 and does not exceed €40 of the total invoice amount.

Example: You have a home battery with a storage capacity of 5 kWh: (€225 x 4) + €185.50 = your premium is €1085.50.
