Improve energy label of business premises with Shift to Solar's smart solutions

Sustainability is becoming increasingly important for businesses. By 2030, all offices should be at least energy label A have. Businesses that do not comply could face higher energy costs, stricter regulations and reduced rentability.

However, a good energy label not only means complying with the law. It also ensures lower energy costs, higher property value and a better image. Shift to Solar offers smart and efficient solutions to improve the energy label of your premises and make them future-proof.

Why a better energy label is important

✔ Legal obligation - By 2030, offices must have at least energy label A.
✔ Lower energy costs - An energy-efficient building saves directly on electricity and gas.
✔ More property value - Energy-efficient properties are more attractive to tenants and buyers.
✔ Sustainable image - Customers and investors appreciate an environmentally conscious approach.
✔ Subsidies and tax benefits - Grant schemes makes conservation financially interesting.

By investing in energy-saving measures now, you will avoid problems and reap the benefits immediately.

How is the energy label determined?

The energy label of a commercial property is determined based on several factors:

• Insulation - How well insulated are the walls, roofs and floors?
• Energy consumption - How efficiently do the heating, cooling and ventilation systems work?
• Renewable energy - Does the property generate its own energy via solar panels or heat pumps?
• Smart energy solutions - Will battery storage and energy management be used?

A property with low energy requirements and renewable energy sources will get a better energy label.

Shift to Solar's smart solutions for a better energy label

1. Solar panels for lower energy costs and a better label

Solar panels are one of the most effective ways to make a business premises more sustainable. They reduce dependence on the electricity grid and reduce energy costs directly.

Advantages:
✔ Reduces the overall energy consumption of the property.
✔ Increases the energy label and makes the property more attractive.
✔ Take advantage of subsidies such as EIA, KIA and SDE++.

Many business premises have a large roof area that is perfect for solar panels. Shift to Solar analyses the possibilities and installs a customised system.

2. Business battery for optimal energy use

Not all solar energy generated is used immediately. With a business battery store your excess power and use it when needed.

Advantages:
✔ Takes full advantage of self-generated solar energy.
✔ Avoids expensive peak loads and reduces grid costs.
✔ Improves energy efficiency and contributes to a better energy label.

A battery not only increases independence from the energy grid, but also ensures that a property uses generated energy more intelligently.

3. Smart charging stations for an energy-efficient fleet

Many companies are making their fleets more sustainable and installing smart charging stations. This not only lowers CO₂ emissions, but also improves the property's energy label.

Advantages:
✔ Better energy label through efficient use of renewable energy.
✔ Lower energy costs through smart off-peak charging.
✔ Attractive to employees and visitors with electric cars.

Shift to Solar offers charging stations that integrate seamlessly with solar panels and energy storage.

4. Solar carports: generate and protect at the same time

A solar carport combines energy generation with functionality. It provides a canopy for vehicles while the integrated solar panels generate renewable energy.

Advantages:
✔ Protection from weather while generating energy.
✔ Lower energy costs and additional sustainability benefits.
✔ Contributes directly to a better energy label.

For companies with large car parks, a solar carport is a smart way to make the best use of space.

Subsidies and tax breaks for sustainability

The government encourages companies to invest in energy-saving measures. This makes investment in sustainability even more attractive.

✔ EIA (Energy Investment Allowance) - Until 45,5% of investment costs tax-deductible.
✔ KIA (Small Scale Investment Allowance) - Additional deduction for renewable energy investments.
✔ SDE++ subsidy - Financial support for renewable energy generation.
✔ ISDE (Investment subsidy for sustainable energy) - For investments in heat pumps and solar water heaters.
✔ MIA/Vamil scheme - Extra tax breaks for environmentally friendly investments.

Making smart use of these schemes makes sustainability more financially attractive. Shift to Solar helps companies apply for and assist with grants.
