Solar installation in Sóller
Sun path and seasonal shading need measuring rather than assuming. Historic and protected settings should be checked with the municipality before fixing a panel layout.
For the first review, send recent bills, the exact property location, roof photographs and whether it is occupied all year. That information is more useful than selecting a standard package before the site has been considered.
Panels, batteries and power-cut backup
Solar panels can reduce grid use while the sun is available. A battery can move some generation into the evening, though it should be sized from actual surplus and demand. Power-cut backup is a separate decision because ordinary grid-connected solar shuts down during an outage.
Pool pumps, air conditioning, hot water and electric-vehicle charging can often be scheduled into solar hours. Future loads should be discussed before the inverter and cable routes are fixed.
Planning and registration in Sóller
The municipal route depends on the building and setting. Rural land, protected buildings, historic streets and apartment communities can require checks beyond an ordinary urban rooftop installation.
The installer’s quotation should identify responsibility for municipal paperwork, electrical registration, grid procedures and surplus compensation. It should also state whether roof access, lifting equipment or switchboard work is included.
What the installer’s quotation should set out
The installer’s quotation should set out installed power, predicted annual generation, self-consumption assumptions, equipment models, warranties and exclusions. If storage is included, it should cover usable capacity, output and whether backup hardware is part of the price.
Monitoring access belongs to the property owner. The handover should also explain the support route if an inverter, battery or communications link fails.
