A directory of Swiss solar companies by region, from the city of Zurich to Ticino. See who plans and installs near you, so you can request quotes from the right people.

Find solar companies in Switzerland, organized by region

Beste Solaranbieter is a directory of Swiss solar companies and photovoltaic installers, sorted by region. If you're thinking about a system on your own roof, you don't want a nationwide list of hits, you want a company nearby. That's exactly what this site is for. We group companies by canton and area, and describe in plain language what each one does and where it's based.

Proximity pays off. A local installer knows the typical roofs in the region, understands how building permits work in the local municipality, and is familiar with the grid operator responsible for registering the system. If snow, storm damage, or a defect strikes, a company from the area will also get back on your roof faster than a firm from the other end of the country.

How we select and rank

Only real companies based in their region, with a verifiable website, make the list. We read what a company writes about its own services, its coverage area, and its references, and summarize it honestly. The order reflects the interest an entry draws, combined with an editorial weighting.

What to check before you sign

Get several quotes, at least three. That way you can quickly tell if a price is realistic and which services are actually included. Compare not just the bottom line but the individual line items: modules, inverter, mounting structure, installation, grid registration, and any battery storage.

Look closely at the components and the warranties. Modules usually carry a product warranty and a performance warranty spanning several decades, while the inverter tends to have a shorter lifespan and gets replaced at some point. Ask which brands are being installed and how the warranty is handled if something goes wrong. Ask to see completed installations in your area and call reference customers, that tells you more than any glossy brochure.

Clarify early who takes care of the grid operator registration and the building permit approval. Reputable companies handle this for you and take the paperwork off your hands.

Subsidies, self-consumption, and storage

Photovoltaic systems qualify for the federal one-time subsidy, and many cantons and municipalities pay extra on top. The amounts change, so check the current figures on Pronovo and with your municipality before you calculate anything. Self-consumption is usually more lucrative than any subsidy: electricity you use yourself replaces expensive grid power, while the compensation for electricity fed back into the grid is often lower. A battery storage system increases self-consumption, but it doesn't pay off for every household. Have someone calculate at what consumption level a storage system would be worth it for you, rather than buying one as a matter of course.

How it works

It starts with a site visit or an initial assessment based on aerial imagery and your electricity consumption. That produces a quote with system design, yield forecast, and price. Once you accept, the grid operator registration follows, and if needed, the building permit process. The installation itself often takes just a few days for a single-family home. At the end come the inspection, the connection by the grid operator, and commissioning, after which the system runs on its own.
