At Belga Solar, we are proud to announce a historic step forward: we have become the first photovoltaic panel manufacturer in the world to obtain B Corp certification! This recognition places our company at the heart of a global movement that is redefining success, placing social and environmental impact at the top of the agenda.
What is B Corp certification and why is it essential?
B Corp certification attests to our high standards of social and environmental performance, confirming our commitment to far more than just profit. It embodies Belga Solar’s core values of “Benefit for All”, a philosophy that guides our every action.
By achieving this certification, we reinforce our mission to provide sustainable and responsible photovoltaic solutions, while inspiring other companies to follow the same path. Read our Impact Report 2023 to find out more about our initiatives.
Rethinking sustainability in the photovoltaic sector
Installing solar panels contributes to decarbonization, but it doesn’t automatically guarantee sustainability. At Belga Solar, we call for the inclusion of environmental and social clauses in specifications to manage risks such as:
- Forced labor or lack of social protection.
- Human rights violations.
- Greenhouse gas emissions linked to manufacturing processes.
By adopting these practices, we can develop a sustainable local industry, creating jobs while reducing our ecological footprint.
A call to action for a sustainable European photovoltaic industry
Belga Solar is joining forces with industry players to promote a European industrial policy aligned with environmental and social objectives. With reliable guarantees and fair prices, we can build a sustainable and competitive value chain.
A source of inspiration for the future
This success would not have been possible without the inspiration and support of B Corp pioneers in Belgium and elsewhere. Special thanks to Eliane Dupret of Better Business, whose guidance was essential to our success.
Belga Solar is now a world leader in sustainability in the photovoltaic industry. Together, let’s support local innovation and actively contribute to the energy transition.
