Your project in the canton of Neuchâtel
The canton of Neuchâtel rises in tiers from the lake to the high plateaus of the Jura. On the lakeshore, the city of Neuchâtel is marked by the yellow stone of its old buildings and its sloping streets, while Boudry and Cortaillod are surrounded by vineyards and residential districts. In the mountains, La Chaux-de-Fonds and Le Locle, watchmaking towns laid out on a grid plan, are lined with large old apartment buildings at an altitude where winter is long. The Val-de-Travers, around Fleurier, and the Val-de-Ruz offer a more rural setting of farmhouses and village houses. Building conditions vary greatly between lakeside and heights. For a façade in an old town or an extension, check with your municipality whether approval is needed. State the municipality, postcode and site access, especially if outdoor work is planned during winter.
- For an old building in La Chaux-de-Fonds or Le Locle, give the floor and describe access via the stairwell.
- On the lakeshore, for a house on a slope, describe the steps or paths leading to the entrance.
- In the mountains, plan outdoor work outside the snow season and say so in your request.
Solar installations in the canton of Neuchâtel
The canton of Neuchâtel stretches from the lakeshore to the mountains. By the lake, in Boudry or Cortaillod, family homes and wine estates enjoy good sunshine and moderate winters. In the Neuchâtel mountains, in La Chaux-de-Fonds and Le Locle, the rows of buildings shaped by watchmaking town planning form a remarkable ensemble, and the integration of panels there is studied with great care. At altitude, harsh winters and snow favour sturdy mounting frames. In the Val-de-Travers, isolated farms can aim for a high degree of self-sufficiency. Contact your municipality before submitting your project.
- In La Chaux-de-Fonds, ask whether installation on the courtyard side is simpler than on the street side.
- For a wine estate, look into powering the vats and the cellar air conditioning with solar electricity.

Frequently asked questions
What should I check before installing solar panels in Neuchâtel?
Start by specifying photovoltaic electricity or solar thermal heat. Provide roof orientation, pitch, condition and any shading without climbing onto the roof. For photovoltaics, share electricity use and any battery or charging needs; for solar thermal, describe hot-water demand and the existing hot-water or heating system. Ask which roof checks are needed before equipment is selected.
Which documents help size a solar installation?
Share roof dimensions or plans and describe the intended use. For photovoltaics, provide electricity consumption and major loads such as a heat pump or electric vehicle; for solar thermal, provide hot-water demand and details of the existing system and storage space. Roof condition and shading need site assessment. Ask the installer to explain the sizing assumptions for the selected system.
What should I compare in solar installer quotes?
Compare the equipment and connections for the same type of system: modules, inverter and any battery for photovoltaics, or collectors, heat storage and hot-water or heating integration for solar thermal. Clarify mounting, roof interfaces, monitoring, documentation and commissioning. Ask which procedures apply to your building and who handles them; do not assume eligibility for financial support.
How should I prepare for the solar installer visit or work?
Gather roof or building plans without climbing onto the roof and explain access restrictions. For photovoltaics, note the distribution board and possible cable routes; for solar thermal, identify the existing hot-water or heating equipment and available storage space. Ask the installer to assess connection routes. If roof repairs are planned, agree their sequence before solar equipment is ordered.
