GO Energi Supports Government Grants For Solar PV Systems

GO ENERGI is offering households the opportunity to take advantage of the Government’s current grants to support PV systems and battery storage through a range of solar energy solutions designed to make the transition more accessible.

Unlike traditional financing arrangements that may require substantial upfront payments, GO ENERGI is offering customers solar energy systems with no upfront investment and repay the cost through monthly instalments at 0% interest. This offer is open to everyone, even to non-customers of GO.

Established by GO in 2024, GO ENERGI combines solar installation expertise with flexible financing options intended to reduce the initial financial commitment often associated with renewable energy projects.

“Malta has made significant progress in solar energy adoption over recent years, but there remains considerable potential for more households to benefit from renewable energy solutions. With Government grants currently available for both solar PV and battery storage systems, many homeowners have a valuable opportunity to invest in technologies that can help reduce energy costs while contributing to Malta’s sustainability goals,” said Alison Mercieca, Chief Commercial Officer at GO plc.

Government grants are available to residential properties holding a residential ARMS bill, with eligible households able to apply for both photovoltaic and battery storage grants. Homeowners who previously benefited from a solar panel grant more than six years ago may also qualify for battery storage support.

For households that do not qualify under the current grant scheme, GO ENERGI also offers solutions through the Feed-in Scheme, providing alternative pathways to renewable energy adoption.

To further encourage uptake, GO ENERGI has extended its customer incentive programme, offering a €25 KLIKK voucher following a site visit and a further €200 KLIKK or GO voucher upon installation.

Malta’s transition towards renewable energy continues to gather momentum, with almost 35,000 photovoltaic (PV) systems now installed across the country, according to the latest figures published by the National Statistics Office (NSO).

NSO data released last year reported that 34,955 grid-connected PV installations were operational by the end of 2024, with the domestic sector accounting for more than 93% of all systems and that renewable electricity generated from PV installations reached 326.5 GWh during the year, reflecting continued growth in residential solar energy adoption.
