Hear from our landowners
“My wife and I worked all our lives, raised kids and were looking for financial security for our future. With the solar farm, we could use part of the land that has been in my family for generations to provide a new stream of income in our retirement. I also believe in clean energy done the right way. So, solar made sense for me and my family.”

Lease land for photovoltaic systems: Requirements and conditions
For land to be leased for solar farms, there are some important requirements to ensure suitability:
- Size and topography: The land must be sufficiently large (about 10 acres) and relatively flat to facilitate the installation and maintenance of the solar modules.
- Sun exposure and grid connection: The area should be in a sunny region and close enough to existing power grids to provide efficient connection options.
- Soil conditions and accessibility: The soil of the open space must be load-bearing, not too rocky, not too wet, and easily accessible.
- Legal and environmental suitability: All necessary permits must be obtained, and environmental requirements, including a possible environmental impact assessment, must be considered.

Frequently asked questions:
More about leasing land for solar farms
As a landowner, am I also the consumer of the electricity?
No, as a landowner, you are not necessarily also a power consumer. Usually, the electricity generated in the solar farms is fed into the public grid and sold to various consumers. You primarily benefit from the lease income for providing your land. However, it is possible to make an agreement that allows you to use part of the generated electricity directly if this is of interest to you.
What are the rental prices if I lease my land for a solar farm?
The lease prices per acre for leasing your land to a solar farm are variable and depend on various factors such as location, accessibility to power grids, and local legal regulations. To get an individual assessment for your property, we recommend submitting an inquiry through our online contact form. There you can provide detailed information about your land and receive customized advice from us on possible lease prices and the next steps.
When do I receive lease income from the solar farm?
You usually receive the first lease payment from the solar farm after it is completed and official commissioned. The exact details of the payment modalities, including the start of payments and payment frequency, are specified in the lease agreement.
Do I have to build a solar farm if I lease my land?
No, you are not obliged to build a solar farm yourself if you lease your land. By making your land available for a solar farm, you not only contribute to the generation of renewable energy but can also benefit from long-term lease income. It is advisable to work with an experienced partner like hep solar, who takes care of the planning, construction, and maintenance of the solar farm and provides comprehensive advice.
