Be aware. Unfortunately a lot of lies go around in Solar-world these days.
Please do your research before ordering your solar system!
The most encountered irregularities are:
1. “We will help you with government subsidies”
- There are no subsidies for Solar Panels anymore in 2025 and as it looks now, everything points in the direction that IVA might go to 23% from the 1st of July.
2 “We are market leader, leading company with x-years of experience”
- A simple NIF or NIPC search of a company will reveal how long one truly exists. Don’t let 100+ reviews fool you if a company only exist less then a year.
3 “Our team are experts”
- Most new companies work only with subcontractors. When problems happen later or issues occur, you will find yourself bouncing between the company that sold you the equipment, and the hired installer. And this is “if” the phone is still answered.
4 “Our product makes you independent, also, when the grid fails”.
- Nice quote and easy said. The reality is that these systems are most of the times way smaller than your grid supplied power. That means you will drop to the power of your system. Normally, only 30%-50% of your contacted power. There are many factors in play to calculate this. Next to the complexity of those installations, do a good research to see if you indeed get what is promised.
We also see a lot of Huawei promotions these days. The reliability of Huawei is still up for discussion and please do your research if you are interested in these systems.
There are votes to ban Huawei from the 5G network in alot of EU countries along with Portugal. Since this equipment works on WiFi, this might become a future challenge when Portugals ISP’s decide or be forced to ban Huawei from their network.
