A solar power plant for housing companies reduces dependence on electricity market price fluctuations.
Did you know that the free green energy produced by solar panels can be used either for shared areas of a housing company or for residents' personal consumption?
Housing companies and their shareholders can benefit from solar power in different ways: the energy produced by solar panels can be used for shared consumption in common areas or distributed for individual residents’ use.
The utilization method depends on the needs of the housing company and its shareholders. The structure of the housing company also plays a role: is it composed of apartment buildings, terraced houses, semi-detached houses, or detached houses?
In apartment buildings, the primary factor is that shareholders live in the same structure. This means that the solar power system is typically installed on the roof and connected to the building’s main electrical system to primarily cover the housing company’s shared electricity consumption.
The sizing of the system is often limited by the roof area. However, if space is not an issue, the system can be optimized to meet the base consumption needs of the housing company, such as heating, laundry facilities, elevators, and lighting.
Excess energy can be sold back to the grid or distributed to shareholders by forming an energy community.
Housing companies consisting of terraced houses, semi-detached houses, or detached houses offer more flexibility for solar power system installations.
When determining the installation location, all roofs within the housing company can be considered.
The best installation spot is chosen based on the optimal orientation, available roof area, and practical installation considerations. For example, the distance to the electrical system connection point affects the decision.
A solar power system can either be connected to the housing company’s main electrical system or divided into several smaller systems connected directly to residents’ individual meters.
The system produces solar energy for the specific consumption point to which it is connected. If the solar energy is not intended for the housing company’s shared consumption, connecting systems directly to residents’ meters can be a more practical solution.

If the excess solar energy produced by the housing company’s panels is to be shared among shareholders, creating an energy community is a smart option.
Shareholders who join the energy community can benefit from the housing company’s surplus solar energy. Together with the housing company, community members decide how the excess energy is distributed and how the shareholders compensate the housing company for the solar energy.
And of course, we at Hehku are here to help set up your energy community.
A convenient solution for housing companies: an electric vehicle charging point can be added during the same installation as the solar power system.
When requesting a solar panel quote, we can also provide a proposal for an electricity contract for the housing company and its shareholders. This way, you gain double benefits from the solar panel investment: producing your own free solar energy and accessing cheaper purchased electricity.
