Grants and VAT in 2026.

The direct grants for solar panels and home batteries in Flanders have largely disappeared. What remains is less visible, but no less valuable for that.

What is no longer there

The Flemish grant for home batteries has been discontinued. Installations after 31 March 2023 no longer qualify and the application desk has been closed since 1 December 2024.

If you are handed a quote today that still counts on that grant, you are entitled to ask questions about it.

What does still exist

The reduced VAT rate of 6 per cent for solar panels on a home older than ten years. For a more recent home or a new build, 21 per cent applies. This is today the largest financial advantage.

Municipal grants. Several municipalities provide their own contribution, often between 200 and 600 EUR. This differs from municipality to municipality; we check it for your address.

Green loans and energy loans for anyone who wants to spread the investment.

For the self-employed and for companies: the increased investment deduction.

VAT on a home battery

The same rate as for solar panels: 6 per cent for a home older than ten years, 21 per cent for a more recent home or a new build. We always state on your quote the rate that is actually charged.

What we do

During the site inspection we check which support applies to your case, including municipal support, and we help you with the application. You submit it yourself with your own itsme login; we tell you exactly where and how.
