BV Bank, one of the country’s largest financial institutions and a leading name in solar panel financing, has introduced a new line of credit that allows customers to finance batteries, inverters, and chargers separately from their solar panel systems. This offering is available to both new customers and those who already have a solar system installed, even if it was financed by another bank. The initiative broadens BV Bank’s product portfolio and supports its goal of delivering tailored financial solutions.

According to Jamil Ganan, Superintendent of Vehicles, Solar and Loans at Banco BV, this new option enhances flexibility for customers and makes the adoption of clean energy more accessible to a wider audience. Battery storage plays a key role for users seeking more control over their electricity use and greater independence from the grid. It enables more efficient use of solar energy by integrating with small-scale generation systems, serving as a backup during outages, and balancing energy loads. Customers can take advantage of lower tariffs by storing energy when rates are low and using it when costs typically spike.

Jamil Ganan stated, “We are one of the largest players in the sector, operating throughout the country. We now have a more complete and diverse line of credit. With this new offering, we are able to serve different customer profiles and ensure greater autonomy in choosing the ideal project, boosting the solar energy market and generating new opportunities for everyone.”

By allowing each component—battery, inverter, or charger—to be financed individually, customers gain more freedom to design their energy systems according to specific needs. It also provides clearer visibility into the overall costs of installation and ongoing maintenance, helping users make more informed decisions. Solar energy financing continues to be a significant part of BV Bank’s business diversification strategy. In the fourth quarter of 2024, the bank saw a 21.4% increase in solar-related contract volumes.

Alongside financing, BV Bank also offers a range of insurance products that protect solar energy investments—covering aspects such as panel cleaning, protection against physical or electrical damage, and equipment breakdowns. This new line of credit reinforces BV Bank’s commitment to supporting sustainable energy adoption through flexible, user-friendly financial solutions.
