Solar Feed-in Tariffs

Self-consumption models with surplus sell-back are increasingly popular, offering flexibility in how you use and monetize your solar production.

Local Financing Options

In Bordeaux, begin with your mairie or local renovation advisory network to identify approved pathways. French lenders often provide rénovation énergétique products that can include PV and related electrical work.

National Financing Programs

National support (for example via France Rénov’ channels) may be combined with financing where eligibility allows. Confirm documentation requirements early to avoid delays in disbursement.

Before You Apply

Prepare your latest electricity bills, roof information, and at least two installer proposals. Confirm whether the finance package includes batteries, electrical upgrades, and grid-connection costs, and ask how grants/rebates are applied in your cash-flow timeline.
