Why We Support 0% VAT on Solar PV, Batteries & Heat Pumps — And Where It’s Already Available

At PVSolar Store, we firmly believe that clean energy should be accessible, affordable, and tax-friendly for everyone.
That’s why we actively support the 0% VAT initiative on solar PV systems, energy storage, and heat pumps across Europe and the UK.
Removing VAT on green technologies isn't just a symbolic gesture—it has a real financial impact for homeowners, installers, and the environment. When installation and equipment costs drop by up to 21%, the payback period on solar investments shortens, making it easier than ever to switch to sustainable energy.
Let’s explore what 0% VAT really means, where it’s already in place, and how we at PVSolar Store help customers across these countries benefit from it.
✅ What Is 0% VAT in Solar?
Zero VAT means no Value-Added Tax is charged on certain renewable energy products and installations. To qualify, systems usually must be:
- Installed in private residential properties
- Supplied and fitted by certified, VAT-registered professionals
- Properly documented with invoices showing VAT exemption
This tax relief makes going solar more attractive and financially accessible—especially for homeowners considering full systems with solar panels, inverters, battery storage, and heat pumps.
