2025 will bring with it a review of the incentives for the installation of photovoltaic systems, with significant changes both with regard to direct incentives and to the regulatory framework of Energy Communities.

These changes are the result of a continuous evolution of the Government's energy policy, which aims to balance the ecological transition with economic sustainability. However, the new incentives seem to entail a reduction, which could affect access to photovoltaic energy production, especially limiting private participation. This scenario raises questions about the future of the energy transition, which remains a crucial objective for our country. In this context, it is important to analyze in detail the changes to photovoltaic incentives, to understand if it is still worth investing in a domestic photovoltaic system or for a small business.

2025 Photovoltaic Bonus: The New Conditions

In 2025, the Photovoltaic Bonus will continue to represent an interesting opportunity for individuals and small businesses who wish to install photovoltaic systems for energy production and self-consumption. However, the maximum deductible amount has been reduced, with tax recovery now taking place in the form of a 50% deduction on the expenses incurred for the installation of the photovoltaic system. In practice, if you spend 10,000 euros on the plant, you can recover 5,000 euros in the following years in the form of savings on taxes.

Differences between Property Types

The 2025 Photovoltaic Bonus has different modalities depending on the type of building on which the system is installed:

  1. First house: The tax deduction is equal to 50% of the amount spent, with a maximum amount of 96,000 euros.
  2. Second home: In this case, the deduction is reduced to 36% of the amount spent, with a maximum amount of 48,000 euros.
  3. Companies: Companies can benefit from a tax credit equal to 50% of the expenses incurred for the installation of the system.

Requirements to Access the Bonus

To take advantage of these incentives, the photovoltaic system must meet some specific requirements:

  • Property type: The system must be installed on residential or commercial buildings located on Italian territory.
  • Plant power: The power of the system cannot exceed 20 kW.
  • Self-consumption: The energy produced must be used exclusively for self-consumption, not for sale.

These criteria result in a reduction in the number of people eligible for the bonus, with the aim of limiting the burden on the public coffers, while encouraging the production of green energy.

The Bonus for Condominiums

Condominiums can also take advantage of the 2025 Photovoltaic Bonus, but with some specific conditions. The tax deduction for condominiums can reach up to 70% of the expenses incurred, but only if the photovoltaic system is installed in common parts of the condominium. In addition, to benefit from the bonus, the installation of solar panels must be accompanied by energy efficiency interventions, such as thermal insulation (thermal insulation) or the replacement of the boiler with a more efficient model.

Future Prospects: A Reduction in Incentives

In recent years, we have seen a continuous reduction in incentives for photovoltaic, and according to current forecasts, this trend should continue. For the 2026/2027 two-year period, the Photovoltaic Bonus will fall further:

  • First homes: The deduction will increase to 36%.
  • Second home: The deduction will drop to 30%.

This reduction in tax breaks will make it more difficult to amortize the costs of installing photovoltaic systems. Although technologies in the photovoltaic sector are becoming increasingly accessible and performing, a significant decrease in incentives risks discouraging many people and companies from investing in photovoltaic.

The Risk of a Slowdown in the Ecological Transition

If the decrease in incentives is not offset by other measures, there could be a slowdown in the energy transition to renewable sources, such as photovoltaic. This would represent a challenge for the country's energy autonomy and for the achievement of environmental objectives. Photovoltaic, in fact, is one of the most effective solutions for reducing dependence on fossil fuels and contributing to the sustainability of the energy system. Its growth is crucial to ensure a greener and more secure future.

The Shared Photovoltaic Solution: GridShare's Innovation

In this scenario of uncertainties related to incentives, GridShare proposes an innovative solution: shared photovoltaic. This method makes it possible to overcome the limitations deriving from the reduction of incentives, opening the door to a greater number of people and companies that want to participate in the ecological transition. Shared photovoltaic allows you to invest in a collective photovoltaic system, as if it were a solar field, divided into shares that can be purchased by anyone.

How Does Shared Photovoltaic Work?

GridShare has already built its first solar field in Ceprano, an area that offers excellent performance conditions. The process is simple: users can purchase participation fees through a crowdfunding platform. After purchasing one or more shares, participants will not have to face additional expenses, since the management and maintenance of the solar field are completely entrusted to GridShare.

Once the solar field is operational, participants begin to receive the economic benefits deriving from the sale of the energy produced. This approach allows you to enter the world of solar energy without the need to install a system at home, with a lower financial commitment than building a domestic photovoltaic system.

Advantages of Shared Photovoltaic

Shared photovoltaic, like the one proposed by GridShare, has numerous advantages, both for individuals and for the environment:

  1. Affordability: The shares are accessible to everyone, even to those who do not have the opportunity to invest in a private photovoltaic system.
  2. Sustainability: Contribute to the production of renewable energy, reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
  3. Ease of management: There is no need to worry about managing the plant, as GridShare takes care of all the logistics and maintenance.
  4. Savings on bills: The economic benefits deriving from the sale of the energy produced can be used to reduce personal energy costs.
  5. Encouraging the ecological transition: The shared photovoltaic model is an important step to promote an increasingly green energy production, without having a heavy impact on public budgets.

Conclusions

In a context of reduced incentives for the installation of photovoltaic systems, shared photovoltaic emerges as an effective and accessible solution for all those who want to contribute to the energy transition without having to face large initial investments. GridShare is proving that sharing solar energy is not only an economic choice, but also a path to a more sustainable and energy independent future. Collaboration in the production and consumption of solar energy could be the key to overcoming difficulties related to incentive changes and accelerating the process of transition to increasingly clean energy.
