A Greener Cyprus
Building a Sustainable Future
Choosing solar is a powerful commitment to a cleaner, greener Cyprus. Photovoltaic systems produce zero harmful emissions while operating, and it's a direct contribution to protecting our island's unique natural environment.
Meeting Our National Goals
By switching to solar, you are playing an active role in helping Cyprus meet its binding EU energy goals. Under the EU's ambitious "Fit for 55" package, Cyprus has a national target to produce 33.17% of its total energy from renewable sources by 2030. This is not just a goal - it's a financial imperative. When Cyprus fails to meet its targets, the nation faces significant financial penalties. Your decision to adopt solar energy doesn't just lower your personal bills; it actively helps Cyprus avoid future fines, reduce its carbon intensity—which is currently 54% above the EU average—and secure our island's energy independence.

Solar Glossary
- InverterThe "brain" of your solar system. It converts the Direct Current (DC) electricity generated by the solar panels into Alternating Current (AC) electricity, which is the standard form used by your home appliances and the grid.kWp (Kilowatt Peak)A unit of measurement that indicates the maximum potential power output of a solar system under ideal standard test conditions. For example, a 4 kWp system can produce up to 4 kilowatts of power when the sun is strongest.kWh (Kilowatt-hour)The unit used to measure the amount of energy generated or consumed over time. This is the unit you see on your electricity bill; your solar system produces kWhs that offset the kWhs you would otherwise buy from the EAC.Net MeteringA billing mechanism that allows you to "store" excess energy you produce in the grid. If you generate more electricity than you use during the day, that surplus is credited to your account (1 kWh exported = 1 kWh credit) to offset the energy you use at night.Net BillingA scheme often used for larger commercial systems or new residential contracts (post-transition). Instead of a simple 1-to-1 energy swap, your excess energy is sold to the supplier at a wholesale price, while the energy you consume from the grid is charged at the retail price.Self-ConsumptionThe act of using the solar energy you generate immediately within your own home or business. Maximizing self-consumption (e.g., running the washing machine when the sun is out) is the most financially efficient way to use a solar system, especially under Net Billing.Hybrid SystemA modern solar setup that includes both a grid connection and a battery storage solution. It allows you to store excess energy for use during the evening or power cuts, providing greater independence while still having the grid as a backup.IrradianceA measure of the power of solar radiation (sunlight) that hits a specific area. Cyprus has very high irradiance levels, meaning solar panels here can produce significantly more energy than in Northern Europe.

During the day, your solar panels will likely produce more energy than your home needs. This excess energy is sent to the EAC grid, and your meter "spins backward" (or digitally records the export).
At night or on cloudy days when you need to pull electricity from the grid, you use up these "banked" credits. At the end of the billing period (usually every two months), the EAC calculates the difference. If you produced as much as you consumed, you only pay the fixed grid usage fees. If you have leftover credits, they typically roll over to the next bill, up until the final settlement at the end of the financial year.The main difference lies in how your surplus energy is valued. With Net Metering, it is a 1-to-1 exchange: one unit (kWh) of energy exported is equal to one unit of energy imported later, regardless of the price. This is highly beneficial for consumers as it essentially lets you use the grid as a free battery.
With Net Billing, the calculation is financial. You sell your excess energy to the supplier at a lower wholesale price (avoidance cost) and buy energy from the grid at the higher retail price. Under this scheme, it is much more profitable to consume your own energy immediately (self-consumption) or store it in a battery, rather than exporting it to the grid.In brief, for the 2024-2025 period, the "Grant Scheme for the Encouragement of the Use of RES" offers several categories. The General Category (A1) offers a grant of €375 per kW, capped at €1,500 (or roughly 4kW). If you live in a mountainous area, this amount increases by 50%.
There are also specialized categories. Category A2 (Vulnerable Households) offers a significantly higher grant of €1,250 per kW (max €6,250). The newer "Photovoltaics for All" (Category A3) allows households without initial capital to install a system; it provides a €250/kW grant plus a repayment scheme where the remaining cost (up to €1,000/kW) is paid back via bimonthly electricity bill charges of €150. Additionally, there is a €750 bonus if you combine solar installation with roof insulation.
For the detailed description check out our "Incentive schemes" section.A solar system comes with multiple warranties that are crucial for securing your long-term investment. At S-PRO, we only use high-quality, bankable components. You should always expect three separate warranties:- Panel Performance Warranty: This is a 25-year guarantee from the manufacturer that the panels will still produce at least 80-87% of their original power after 25 years.
- Panel Product Warranty: This covers physical defects or faults in the panel itself, typically for 12-15 years.
- Inverter Warranty: This covers the "brain" of your system. A high-quality inverter will have a warranty of 10-15 years, with options to extend.
- Workmanship Warranty: This is our promise to you. S-PRO provides a comprehensive warranty on our installation work, guaranteeing that the system is installed to the highest professional standards.
Yes, especially in Cyprus where dust, sand, and lack of rain in the summer are common. A layer of dust can reduce your system's efficiency by 5% to 15%. We generally recommend cleaning your panels 2-3 times a year, typically before the peak summer months and again in early autumn.
However, you should avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Simple de-ionized water and a soft brush are usually best.A high-quality photovoltaic system is a long-term asset. The solar panels themselves typically come with a performance warranty of 25 years, meaning they are guaranteed to produce a certain percentage of their original power (usually over 80%) even after two and a half decades.
Inverters usually have a shorter lifespan, typically ranging from 10 to 15 years, and may need replacement once during the system's life. With proper maintenance and S-PRO’s installation standards, your system can continue generating free electricity well beyond the 25-year mark.The "right size" is no longer just about matching your total annual consumption. Today, we design a system based on your unique energy profile—when you use electricity most. Our team will analyze your past electricity bills to understand your daily and seasonal consumption patterns.
With this data, we calculate the optimal system size (kWp) to maximize your self-consumption. The goal is to produce enough energy to cover your daytime needs and fully charge your battery for the evening, minimizing what you have to sell or buy. For reference, a typical Cypriot home installs between 4 kWp and 8 kWp, but your solution will be 100% customized to you.While the full process from consultation to grid connection can take several months (due to paperwork and approvals), the physical, on-site installation is very fast. For a standard residential house, our professional team typically completes the entire installation in just one day.
We coordinate the work to be as minimally disruptive as possible. Our technicians are efficient, clean, and respectful of your property, ensuring a seamless and professional setup from start to finish.Downloads & LinksCheck out the essential technical specifications and official resources to help you in your solar journey.
