Solar panels

Thinking about a sustainable energy source? Swedbank loan for solar panels might do!

Solar energy usage is an investment that certainly pays off, especially in the long run. Thanks to decreasing costs, solar energy has become available to many. While some still think that Estonia weather is not suited for producing solar energy, actually the amount of sunshine days in Estonia is similar to that in UK or Germany. Not to mention the fact that current technologies allow producing solar energy on cloudy days as well.

Solar panels can be set up on almost all kinds of roofs – except for the thatched ones. If the roof is not suitable for solar panels (e.g. if trees cast shadow on it), the panels can also be mounted on the ground. There are different types of panels - they vary by price, efficiency, ability to produce energy during cloudy days and other factors.

If you’re planning to install solar panels and your property is already connected to the electric grid, Swedbank’s loan for solar panels is a reasonable way for financing it.

New! Special conditions with a fixed interest rate.
