Before installing solar panels in Santa Pola the key question is how much you will save on your electricity bill. It depends on output, on how much you use directly and on how your supplier credits surplus energy.
How much a panel produces in Santa Pola
Close to 2,900 sun hours a year means each well-placed kWp produces around 1,500 to 1,650 kWh. A 5 kWp system can reach 7,500 to 8,250 kWh a year.
How much of it you actually use
Without a battery, a home with air conditioning and a pool usually uses 40% to 60% directly. The more you shift appliances to daytime, the higher the figure.
What happens to surplus energy
With surplus compensation, what you send to the grid is deducted from the energy part of the bill at the price in your contract. It is not paid as income and cannot take the bill below zero.
An example for a villa in the area
A villa using 6,000 kWh and paying 1,200 euros a year could save roughly 700 to 800 euros if about 60% is covered. Payback in the region of 8 to 10 years without grants, less with rebates.
How to save more
Add a battery, use a heat pump or charge an electric car in the daytime, and keep panels clean of salt and dust.
