SBP | Questions & Answers about solar panels and other green technology

At least 30 years - but probably much longer than that

The lifespan for the production capacity of solar panels is over 30 years. The most common warranty period for solar panels today is between 10-25 years, and with performance guarantees for up to 30 years. Furthermore, a Scandinavian study has shown that the Swedish climate results in significantly lower degradation in performance than the panel is calculated to have from the factory. This is a reason to be confident that a facility will be able to deliver sustainable energy for a long time to come, even in a Nordic context.

How long can solar panels produce energy?

The demands for sustainability for companies are only increasing

Indications from both the EU and the Swedish government are that increasingly tougher requirements will be placed on Swedish companies every year. In turn, individual companies will place higher demands on contractors, suppliers and partners. Everyone will then go in the same direction within the framework of the global sustainability goals, and therefore there is a risk that companies that lag behind will miss out on important business in the future. Several overarching environmental factors are affecting, such as global climate meetings, the taxonomy, the EU green deal, agenda 2030, national sustainability goals and much more.

Sustainability requirements for companies

What do the sustainability requirements of the future look like for companies?

You can choose when you want to use your sustainable energy

A solar power system is connected directly to your property through the electricity grid and therefore does not need a storage unit to allow your business to operate on green electricity. However, your property is run on sustainable electricity only when the sun's energy is captured by the panels, but with energy storage, you can optimize consumption more evenly and thereby minimize the proportion of purchased electricity. When the panels produce solar energy, the electricity can be stored and distributed evenly over the day or night during times that require more energy.

What are the benefits of energy storage together with solar panels?

It lowers electricity costs for decades to come.

This concerns both the sustainability requirements, which become stricter every year, and the economic aspect. In each calculation, we present the estimated return that a solar power system would give you annually. Depending on the size of the system you can save on the cost of electricity from the regular electricity grid – and if you produce enough, you can also sell electricity on the local grid. The combination is particularly commercially interesting given the gradually increasing electricity prices that many analysts predict for the future.

What are the main benefits of investing in solar panels?

For us, it is important that you can make decisions
based on correct information

Therefore, we want to highlight common questions that arise in connection with customer meetings. In this way, we can hopefully contribute to a simplified process for you as a company and make the journey towards a sustainable business a little shorter.
In an area as changeable as green technology, we make sure to update the questions frequently so that you as a customer can be confident that you are getting the right information in connection with your investments.
