The commitments for 2026 have been used up, new applications go on a waiting list.
Is a solar installation worthwhile in Thurgau?
That depends mainly on how much of your solar power you use yourself. Electricity from the grid cost around 32 centimes per kilowatt hour on average in Switzerland in 2024. For power you feed in, you usually get much less. In 2025, installations of 10 to 30 kilowatts in Thurgau cost a median of CHF 1’869 per kilowatt excluding VAT. That is slightly less than the Swiss median of CHF 1’911.
Who registers the solar installation with the municipality?
As a rule, the solar company does this for you. Up to 35 m² in the building zone, no notification is needed. The solar company reports larger installations to the municipality no later than 20 days before construction starts, with a site plan and the position on the building.
