How does it work ?

Solar potential assessment

We analyze your entire real estate portfolio using our AI powered simulation tool, “Projection Solar”. You receive a clear estimate of solar production, expected lease payments, energy savings and the resulting reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.

⁠Project financing

We cover 100% of CAPEX and OPEX through dedicated investment vehicles for the entire duration of the contracts.

Installation and commissioning

We manage every stage of the project: administrative procedures, technical design, installation and maintenance. You don’t have to manage anything, we take care of everything.

Solar power system leasing

You lease the photovoltaic system from ArchiSmart Solar. The lease payments are covered by the savings generated on your current electricity bills and may be passed on to your tenants, depending on your management model.

Self-generation and profit sharing

From the moment the system is commissioned, you begin consuming your own solar energy, reducing your CO₂ emissions. Surplus production is optimized, and the resulting benefits are shared with you.

 
 

You activate your rooftops

We take care of the rest

  • Decarbonization of your real estate portfolio
  • Improved compliance with the French Tertiary Decree and CSRD
  • Enhanced asset value
  • Optimization at no additional cost

FAQ

What does solarizing a building mean?

Solarizing a building means installing photovoltaic solar panels on its rooftop or on other suitable surfaces such as certain façades to generate renewable electricity on site. This enables property owners and operators to actively contribute to the energy transition while reducing their reliance on grid electricity.

In the commercial real estate sector, solarization provides a strategic response to the requirements of the French Tertiary Decree, the CSRD and the APER Law. It also helps enhance asset value by improving energy performance and making properties more attractive from an ESG perspective.

Yes, a leased property can absolutely be equipped with solar panels, whether it is residential or commercial. In this case, the solar electricity generated can be:

  • used for common services such as lighting, lifts and ventilation;
  • self-consumed and recharged to tenants, helping them achieve part of their environmental targets;
  • fed back into the grid through resale or collective energy sharing schemes.

The Solar as a Service solution provided by ArchiSmart Solar simplifies the entire process by managing the project from start to finish, including the legal aspects related to leasing, authorizations and benefit sharing. It takes the property owner’s requirements into account and can provide different energy consumption scenarios.
