Klimabonus Wunnen 2026 : Luxembourg's New Solar Grant Programme
Since 4 January 2026, the Klimabonus Wunnen has replaced the former PRIMe House programme. The key innovation: third-party pre-financing — the subsidy is deducted directly from the installer's invoice. You only pay the net amount.

Eligibility requirements: minimum capacity 2 kWp, self-consumption mandatory, residential building in Luxembourg, registered installer. Feed-in tariff for surplus: ~€0.1374/kWh guaranteed for 15 years.

- Tight budget: Canadian Solar TOPHiKu6 or LONGi Hi-MO X6 + SMA inverter
- Best kWh/€: LONGi Hi-MO X6 (TOPCon) + Fronius
- Shaded roof: Enphase IQ8 (micro-inverters) + Q Cells
- Maximum performance: SunPower Maxeon 6 (24.1%) + SolarEdge
- Local argument: Solarcells.lu + SMA or Fronius
