Solar panels in a co-ownership in Belgium: some key legal issues
The ambition to boost renewable energy sources and reduce energy costs has intensified in recent years, even more since the beginning of the current energy crisis. Although solar panels have in this context become increasingly popular in the Belgian market, certain legal issues may arise in relation to their installation in a co-ownership and the sharing of the generated electricity.
In this article we will discuss the key legal issues and the most recent amendments relating to the “peer-to-peer” energy-sharing legislative framework:
- How to obtain consent to install solar panels in a co-ownership?
- How can solar-generated electricity be shared between co-owners?
- What about private consumption?
- Together towards a climate-neutral future?
