Solar energy in instalments
In the case of a solution with instalments, your company or apartment association can start consuming environmentally friendly solar energy immediately without having to make a large one-time investment. Acquisition of a solar park in instalments will extend the payback period for a 50 kW plant by only 2-3 years.
We offer equipment by the world's leading manufacturers that is high-quality, has a long warranty, and has undergone a careful selection process. The journey from design to final set-up of the panels and handover for generation will be worry-free for the customer. We take care of the necessary licenses as well as the documentation regarding network connection. We help you every step of the way in creating a suitable solution - from idea and funding to realization.

Why install solar panels?
You save on electricity, network charges and state taxes, and you can sell the rest of your electricity back to the network.
An investment in panels is both stable and reliable, improves the energy class of the building and increases its market value.
By generating electricity from the sun, you will reduce your carbon footprint, contribute to preserving the environment, and set an example for others.
Why Eesti Energia?
Our solar energy experts do their best to make everything go smoothly from idea to implementation. We think alongside you and create the best solutions, apply for the required permits and assist with the network contract. Moreover, we will buy back any excess electricity from electricity consumption.
Besides our valued expertise, we offer equipment from the leading producers of the world, and the installation will be handled by our experienced partners. Our equipment is covered by a 10-year warranty and our work by 2-year warranty.
Since this is a long-term investment, we can guarantee that we will be there for you today and in the years to come.
We find a solution that suits the possibilities and needs of each customer and helps lay the foundation for a more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly lifestyle. We also help finance the solution.
Completed works
By today we have installed more than a 100 solar power plants across Estonia with a total capacity of over 7 MW. We install plants on both gable and flat roofs as well as on the ground. Each solar power plant is a tailored solution and is designed according to the specifics of the building and the needs of the customer.
Dairy farm Estonia's solar power plant
We installed a solar power plant with a capacity of 174 kW, consisting of 644 solar panels, on the roof of dairy farm Estonia in Järva county. It is a Solar Electricity Plus solution where the customer does not need to invest and the electricity produced can be cheaper for the customer than the electricity purchased from the network. Also, the price of solar energy is fixed for the entire contract period, so the more electricity price increases in the future, the greater the savings for the customer. The installed system covers about 15% of the customer's total annual electricity consumption, including more than a half of the company's daily consumption from April to August.
Printing house Greif´s solar power plant
Next to the production plant of Greif in Tartu, we built a solar power plant with a capacity of 216 kW, consisting of 800 solar panels. The installed system covers 20% of the total annual electricity consumption of the printing house and covers almost 3000 m2 of ground. It is also a Solar Electricity Plus solution.
Solar power plant at the Tasku Centre
We installed 560 solar panels on one of the largest shopping centres in Tartu, with a total power of 151 kW. The installed turnkey system covers 4% of the centre's annual electricity consumption. The project was complicated by a multi-level roof with several ventilation units. To ensure safety and bearing capacity, we made the required design calculations.
BM Trade's solar power plant
We built a 230 kW solar power plant on the property and rooftop of the eel trading company BM Trade in Viljandi, which allows the company to mitigate the risk of rising market prices of electricity because the favourable electricity price is fixed in the contract for 25 years. The plant, set up in Viiratsi, was designed with the energy needs of eel farming in mind, to cover all fish farming electricity needs and to sell the rest of the electricity to the network.

Financial gain in 25 years
The financial gain from installing solar panels consists of two parts:
In finding the financial gain, we have taken into account the average electricity prices and network charges for the year. We adjust the growth of electricity prices according to the long-term average inflation rate of 2%. The increase in network charges has not been included in the cost-benefit calculation. The financial gain is calculated for 25 years, which is also the period for which we give a performance guarantee for solar panels.
Rate of return (IRR)
The calculations are based on the following assumptions:
- the electricity not purchased from the network, and related network service fees, electricity excise tax and renewable energy fees.
- the electricity sold to the network.
Support schemes
It is possible to apply for governmental investment support to install a solar solution.
More information can be found here.
Equipment and warranty
We use the following devices from the world's leading major manufacturers to build solar solutions:
PANELS: Recom. Both mono and polycrystalline panels
are available.
INVERTERS: Huawei
Equipment lifetime and warranty period
Solar panels have a life span of at least 25 years. Their capacity decreases by about 0.6% per year, and after 25 years the manufacturers guarantee a power output of about 85%. Only the inverter should be replaced about 15 years after installation.
Appliances are subject to the following product guarantees - 15 years for panels and 5-10 years for inverter.
We provide a 2-year warranty on the installation of the equipment.
