Funding for Solar Energy
The city of Neuss, Germany, has announced a funding programme for the purchase of "balcony solar power plants." This initiative aims to encourage private individuals, tenants, and small businesses to install solar panels on their balconies, terraces, or similar private outdoor spaces.
To be eligible for the funding, applicants must reside within the city of Neuss and possess a housing entitlement certificate. The solar power systems must adhere to local technical and safety standards and have a capacity of up to 600 watts peak.
Interested parties can apply for the funding by visiting the official Neuss city website (NEUSS.DE) or by requesting the necessary forms from the Office for Urban Greenery, Environment and Climate, located at Bergheimer Str. 67a, 41464 Neuss. Applications can be submitted online or by post, and they should include proof of residence or tenancy, as well as quotations or invoices for the solar equipment.
The funding programme operates on a first-come, first-served basis, with a funding cap in place. Recipients will receive €400 towards the cost of their solar power system. The power generated by the solar panels can primarily be used for self-consumption.
It is worth noting that the solar panels for the programme can be purchased from the city's website (stadtwerke-neuss.de/balkonkraftwerke), but other providers are also accepted.
As part of the funding conditions, recipients may be required to share basic data on system performance for monitoring purposes.
