Quel panneau solaire choisir pour votre maison ?

Introduction Are you considering switching to solar but feel overwhelmed by the multitude of technologies and prices? This video breaks down the entire world of photovoltaics for you, based on the latest data from 2025 and 2026. This video covers: • The 3 main types of panels: ◦ Photovoltaic panels to produce your electricity. ◦ Thermal panels (solar water heaters) for your domestic hot water. ◦ Hybrid panels (PV/T) that combine both technologies for maximum efficiency. • Which cell technology to choose? ◦ Monocrystalline vs. Polycrystalline: Monocrystalline remains the favorite for its sleek black appearance and high efficiency (16-24%), while polycrystalline is more affordable and heat-resistant. ◦ TOPCon technology: The new revolution that surpasses traditional PERC cells with efficiencies of 22% and improved durability. • Amorphous Panels: Lightweight and flexible, ideal for atypical surfaces (boats, motorhomes) despite a lower efficiency. • The Future (Perovskite/CIGS Tandem): Research shows that combining these materials could increase efficiency up to 39.13%. • Budget and Profitability: • Expect to pay between €6,000 and €10,500 for a 3 kWp photovoltaic installation (after subsidies). • An installation typically pays for itself in 7 to 11 years depending on your region. • Discover available subsidies: Self-consumption bonus, MaPrimeRénov', reduced VAT, and EDF OA buyback rates. • Ecology and Recycling: • Contrary to popular belief, the panels contain little to no rare metals and are composed of 94% silicon. In France, the SOREN organization ensures the free collection and recycling of used panels. The energy payback time is rapid: a panel produces as much energy as it took to manufacture in just 1.5 to 2.5 years. Key points to remember: • The choice depends on your available surface area and your budget. • Use a RGE-certified installer to guarantee quality and benefit from government subsidies.
