Service focus

What really matters for installation on site

In Baden, people often look beyond price and compare execution quality. This page therefore focuses on the points that make the difference during execution. Mounting structure per SIA 261, documented penetrations, SUVA-compliant fall protection and complete handover including string diagram, measurement protocol and photo documentation.

Service focus

  • Mounting structure matched to tile, sheet metal, facade or flat-roof systems – not generic, but dimensioned object-specifically to wind zone (SIA 261), snow loads and building height.
  • Clean cable routing with documented penetrations and roof membrane protection. Every transition between roof and electrical installation is photographed and recorded.
  • Coordination of scaffolding, fall protection (SUVA-compliant), installation logistics and object-specific safety requirements – including a mounting concept prior to material ordering.
  • Photo documentation and traceable handover: single-line diagram, string plan, data sheets, measurement protocol, photos – everything needed for acceptance, grid operator and future service.

Why this canton shifts the priorities

Baden is strong for projects where aesthetics, roof protection and clean site coordination influence the buying decision. Aargau: highest cantonal subsidy in Switzerland with CHF 380/kWp. Despite best subsidies only 7.6% potential utilized — huge growth opportunities! Parking lot solar niche subsidy unique in Switzerland. Aargau solar offensive active.

Regional framework

  • Higher-value properties require clean installation without improvised rework.
  • Roof and electrical details need to be aligned before execution.
  • A documented handover builds trust for future maintenance and service.

Project logic

How roof, installation and electrical work fit together

In Aargau, PV systems can be fully deducted from taxes as value-maintaining and energy-saving investments. The canton allows distribution over several tax periods when taxable income is exceeded. Mounting structure matched to roof type and building use.

Project logic

  • Mounting structure matched to roof type and building use.
  • Clean penetrations and clearly routed cables.
  • Binding coordination between installation, electrical work and handover.

Cantonal framework

Which cantonal framework really shapes Baden.

Tax and subsidy logic

In Aargau, PV systems can be fully deducted from taxes as value-maintaining and energy-saving investments. The canton allows distribution over several tax periods when taxable income is exceeded. CHF 380/kWp cantonal subsidy for roof-integrated systems — HIGHEST in Switzerland! Calculation example 10 kWp: Federal CHF 3,550 + Canton CHF 3,800 = Total CHF 7,350 (41% subsidized!). Parking lot solar bonus: unique offering for commercial/industrial.

Permits and energy law

Notification via EVEN portal. Standard roof systems require no building permit. Parking lot solar: simplified approval. Aargau solar offensive supports quick action. Aargau relies on individual responsibility, flanked by MuKEn 2014 requirements for new buildings. The revised Energy Act (EnergieG AG) requires self-generation for new buildings and restricts fossil heating upon replacement.

Market signal and location

Aargau: highest cantonal subsidy in Switzerland with CHF 380/kWp. Despite best subsidies only 7.6% potential utilized — huge growth opportunities! Parking lot solar niche subsidy unique in Switzerland. Aargau solar offensive active. Cantonal subsidy programmes complement Pronovo partly for specific storage solutions. AEW Energie AG offers attractive feed-in tariffs as regional provider. Additionally, Aargau subsidizes consulting through the cantonal energy advisory service.
