🧽 Good news: solar panels are extremely low maintenance. Here's what you actually need to do.

✅ Clean them 2-3 times a year (a gentle rinse with water is usually enough)
✅ Check your inverter app monthly - production should be consistent
✅ Book a professional inspection every 3-5 years
❌ No oil, no moving parts, nothing to replace regularly

In Torrevieja, dust and occasional bird droppings are the main culprits for reduced output. A simple clean restores full performance within minutes.

Most of our clients report spending less than 30 minutes a year maintaining their system. That's a pretty good deal for a 20+ year investment. 😊

⚡ Completed: 7 kW Solar Installation + 10 kWh Battery Storage - La Siesta, Torrevieja

📋 Project details:
✅ 7 kW solar system
✅ 10 kWh KEBE battery storage
✅ Residential property, La Siesta
✅ Estimated annual saving: €1,500-€1,800
✅ Grid connection and paperwork: fully handled

A 7 kW system paired with 10 kWh of battery storage is one of the most effective combinations for a Costa Blanca home. During the day, the panels cover all household consumption and charge the battery simultaneously. By the time the sun goes down, the battery is full - and the home keeps running on solar power well into the night.

For a property in La Siesta, just minutes from Torrevieja, this means near-complete independence from the grid: lower bills, no exposure to electricity price spikes, and a system that pays for itself year after year.

The KEBE batteries we install are rack-mounted LiFePO4 units - a lithium iron phosphate chemistry that prioritises safety, longevity and stable performance in the heat of a Spanish summer. Rated for 6,000+ charge cycles, they're built to last the full lifespan of the solar system.

⚡ Completed: 5 kW Solar Installation + 10 kWh Battery Storage - Orihuela Costa

📋 Project details:
✅ 5 kW solar system
✅ 10 kWh KEBE battery storage
✅ Custom welded mounting structure, measured and fabricated on site
✅ Grid connection and paperwork: fully handled

This project had one extra challenge: the roof layout didn't allow for a standard mounting solution. So we built one from scratch.

Our team designed and welded a custom steel supporting structure, measured precisely for this property - ensuring the panels are mounted at the optimal angle for maximum solar production, and built to last the full lifespan of the system.
It's a service we offer for any property where a standard installation isn't possible: flat roofs, unconventional layouts, terraces or ground-mounted systems. If your roof is complicated, that's not a reason to give up on solar — it's just a reason to call us.
The 10 kWh KEBE battery means this home now runs on stored solar energy through the evening and night — virtually independent from the grid around the clock.

⚙️ The panel gets all the glory. But the inverter is the real workhorse.

Here's what it does:

Your solar panels produce DC electricity - the same type used in batteries. But your home runs on AC electricity. The inverter converts DC to AC instantly, 24/7, silently.

A poor-quality inverter = energy losses, system downtime, and shorter lifespan.
A premium inverter = maximum efficiency, smart monitoring and years of reliable performance.

At Pacto Verde, we install Victron, Huawei, Greenheiss and other leading inverter brands - because the inverter is not the place to cut corners.

💡 Pro tip: Your inverter comes with an app. You can monitor exactly how much energy your panels are producing in real time, from your phone.

❓ "Do solar panels work in winter?" - yes, and here's why that question matters less in Torrevieja than almost anywhere else.

Solar panels work on light, not heat. In fact, panels are slightly more efficient on cool sunny days than hot ones.

Here's what winter looks like on the Costa Blanca:
🌤️ Average 6-7 hours of sunshine per day in December-January
🌡️ Average temperatures: 17-19°C
☀️ Over 260 sunny days even in the "off season"

A 6 kW system in Torrevieja still produces 18-22 kWh on a typical winter day - more than enough to cover daily household needs.

You're not in Manchester. You're in one of the sunniest spots in Europe. Your panels work every month of the year. 🌞

🔋 "What happens when the sun goes down?" - great question. That's exactly where battery storage comes in.

Without a battery, your solar panels only power your home during daylight hours. Any surplus goes to the grid (and earns you a small credit).

With a battery:
✅ Store surplus solar energy during the day
✅ Use it in the evening and at night
✅ Stay powered during grid outages
✅ Reduce your dependence on the grid to near zero

For Costa Blanca homeowners - especially those who spend evenings at home or want full energy independence - a battery makes your solar system work around the clock.

Our recent installation in Pinar de Campoverde: 6 kW panels + 10 kWh battery. That home is now virtually self-sufficient. 🌙⚡

The Two Ways Solar Saves You Money (Most People Only Know One)

💶 Solar reduces your electricity bill in two distinct ways. Understanding both helps you maximise your savings - and avoid being disappointed by your first bill after installation.

Way 1: Self-consumption (the big one)
Every kilowatt-hour your panels generate during the day, which your home uses directly, is a kilowatt-hour you don't buy from the grid. In Spain, residential electricity rates typically range from €0.18 to €0.28/kWh depending on your tariff and time of use. So every kWh you self-consume saves you that amount - immediately, every day.

This saving is invisible on your electricity bill. Your bill will show what you consumed from the grid and what you exported - but it won't tell you what your solar system offset. This is why monitoring matters: without it, many homeowners underestimate what they're saving.

Way 2: Export compensation (compensación de excedentes)
Any electricity your system produces that your home doesn't use in real time is exported to the grid. In Spain, your electricity supplier credits you for this at a rate typically between €0.07–0.12/kWh - lower than what you pay to consume, but still a meaningful reduction on your bill.

The practical implication: the more you can shift your energy consumption to daylight hours, the more you benefit from self-consumption (the better rate), and the less you rely on export compensation (the lower rate).

Smart habits that maximise savings:
🕙 Run your dishwasher and washing machine between 10am and 4pm
🏊 Set your pool pump to run during peak solar hours
🌡️ Pre-cool or pre-heat your home in the afternoon rather than the evening
🔋 If you have a battery, charge it from solar during the day and draw from it at night

The combination of self-consumption + export compensation + good energy habits is what takes clients from "I save a bit on my bill" to "my bill is almost zero."

How Much Energy Will Your System Actually Produce?

📊 "How much will my panels actually generate?" It's the first question most homeowners ask - and the answer depends on more factors than most installers will tell you upfront.

Let's break it down properly.

The starting point is your location's "peak sun hours" - a figure that represents the average daily solar energy available at your specific latitude and climate. For the Costa Blanca region, this figure sits around 4.5–5.0 peak sun hours per day annually. For comparison, London gets around 2.5–3.0 and Berlin around 3.0–3.5. This is one reason why going solar in southern Spain makes such strong financial sense.

A simple working formula:
System size (kW) × peak sun hours = daily kWh output

So for Torrevieja:
🔹 3 kW system: ~13–15 kWh/day average
🔹 6 kW system: ~27–30 kWh/day average
🔹 8 kW system: ~36–40 kWh/day average

But "average" means exactly that - it varies throughout the year:
☀️ July average: 7+ peak sun hours → a 6 kW system produces 40+ kWh/day
🌤️ December average: 4 peak sun hours → the same system produces ~24 kWh/day

The good news: even in December, Torrevieja produces more solar energy per day than London does in July.

Other factors that affect real-world output:
— Panel orientation and roof angle (south-facing at 30° is optimal)
— Shading from trees, chimneys or neighbouring buildings
— Dust and dirt on the panels (5–15% reduction if not cleaned regularly)
— Panel temperature (hot panels are slightly less efficient)
— Inverter efficiency losses (typically 3–5%)

When we survey a property, we assess all of these factors before recommending a system size. A system that's correctly sized for your actual energy consumption and roof orientation will always outperform a larger, poorly planned one.

The 5 Components Every Solar System Needs

🔧 A solar panel on a roof doesn't become a working energy system without several other components. Here's what they are, what they do, and why each one matters.

When you invest in solar, you're not just buying panels. You're buying a complete system - and the quality of every component affects how well it performs over its 20–25 year lifespan.

1.⁠ ⁠Solar Panels
The panels absorb sunlight and generate DC electricity. Panel quality varies enormously. Key things to look for: efficiency rating (how much electricity per square metre), temperature coefficient (how well they handle heat), and warranty terms - typically 25–30 years for output, 10–15 years for product.

2.⁠ ⁠Inverter
Converts DC electricity from the panels into the AC electricity your home uses. This is arguably the most critical component - and the one most likely to need replacing during the system's lifetime (typically after 10–15 years). A good inverter also provides real-time monitoring so you can track your system's performance from your phone.

3.⁠ ⁠Battery Storage (optional but increasingly popular)
Stores surplus solar energy for use at night or during outages. Battery capacity is measured in kWh. A 10 kWh battery is enough to power an average home through a typical evening and night. Without a battery, surplus energy goes to the grid; with one, it stays in your home.

4.⁠ ⁠Smart Meter / Consumption Monitor
Shows not just how much your system generates, but how much your home consumes - and crucially, how much you're saving vs. what you'd pay from the grid. Many installers skip this. We consider it essential, because without it, you're flying blind.

5.⁠ ⁠Grid Connection
Your backup. When your system isn't producing enough (cloudy days, at night without a battery), you draw from the grid as normal. Having solar doesn't disconnect you from the grid - it simply reduces how much you need it.

Understanding these components means you can ask better questions, compare quotes more accurately, and avoid being oversold on things you don't need - or undersold on things you do.

kW vs kWh: The Difference That Explains Your Bill

⚡ kW or kWh - most people use them interchangeably. They're not the same thing, and the difference has a direct impact on how you understand your electricity bill and your solar system.

This is one of the most common sources of confusion we encounter - so let's clear it up properly.

Power (kW) = how fast electricity is being generated or consumed right now.
Think of it like the speed of a car. At any given moment, your kettle might be drawing 2 kW. Your air conditioning unit: 1.5–3 kW. Your solar system at midday on a clear day: 6 kW (if that's its rated size).

Energy (kWh) = how much electricity has been generated or consumed over a period of time.
Think of it like the distance your car has travelled. If your kettle runs for 30 minutes (0.5 hours) at 2 kW, it uses 1 kWh of energy. That's what appears on your electricity bill.

So when we say a "6 kW solar system" - that's its peak power output in ideal conditions. But what you actually benefit from is the energy it produces over the course of a day.

Here's how to estimate daily output for the Costa Blanca:
👉 System size (kW) × 4.5 = approximate daily kWh output

🔹 3 kW system → ~13–14 kWh/day
🔹 6 kW system → ~27–28 kWh/day
🔹 8 kW system → ~35–36 kWh/day

The average Costa Blanca household uses between 15 and 22 kWh per day - more in summer due to air conditioning. A well-sized system covers the majority of that, and any surplus is either exported to the grid or stored in a battery for evening use.

One more thing: your solar system won't always hit its rated peak output. Dust, heat, the angle of the sun, and inverter efficiency all affect real-world production. A 6 kW system on a typical day might peak at 4.8–5.2 kW rather than 6 kW - and that's completely normal. What matters is the total kWh generated over the day, the month, and the year.
