We design, fit and register solar systems for villas, townhouses and communities between Estepona and Mijas. One written quote covers the panels, the permits and the paperwork with your electricity company.
Marbella gets between 9 hours 40 minutes of daylight in December and 14 hours 40 minutes in June. Even in the shortest month, an 11-panel roof here makes about 15 kWh on an average day.
PVGIS, the European Commission’s solar database, gives a south-facing roof in Marbella about 1,675 kWh a year for every kilowatt of panels. Málaga’s weather station records 2,905 hours of sunshine a year. Few places in Europe do better.
When the sun shines matters as much. A home here uses most in summer, with the air conditioning and the pool pump running all day, which is exactly when the roof produces most. Winter is lower but far from nothing: December still gives half of what July does.

Design, supply and fitting on tile, flat and metal roofs, from a four-panel penthouse system to a villa with thirty. The price includes the inverter, the monitoring app and every permit, and the system is registered in your name before we call the job finished.
Keep the day’s surplus for the evening, and keep the lights on in a power cut. Fitted with new panels or added to a system you already have.
Saharan dust and long dry summers take a few percent off every array on this coast. We clean, check and repair systems, including ones we did not install.
Most homes are producing three to six weeks after accepting the quote. You deal with one company throughout.
We measure the roof, check the meter and consumer unit, look for shade, and go through a year of your bills.
You get a layout drawn on your own roof, its expected output month by month, and one price with IVA included.
We file the declaration with the town hall and request the tax rebate. In a community, we help with the vote.
One to two days for most homes: fixings, panels, inverter, connection to your consumer unit, testing.
We register the system with the Junta and the grid operator, and set up payment for your surplus.
Guide figures for four common situations, all without a battery and with IVA included.
| Home | Monthly bill | System | Yearly output | Yearly saving | Guide price | Pays back in |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Penthouse or small townhouse | €80 | 4 panels, 1.8 kWp | 2,880 kWh | €320 | €2,600 to €3,500 | 8 to 11 years |
| Family townhouse | €130 | 7 panels, 3.15 kWp | 5,040 kWh | €560 | €3,800 to €5,000 | 7 to 9 years |
| Villa with a pool | €220 | 11 panels, 4.95 kWp | 7,920 kWh | €1,040 | €5,500 to €6,900 | 5 to 7 years |
| Large villa, pool and air conditioning | €380 | 20 panels, 9 kWp | 14,400 kWh | €1,890 | €9,100 to €11,400 | 5 to 6 years |
Worked out with the same assumptions as the calculator below. A battery, a difficult roof or an unusual tariff changes the picture. The cost guide explains what goes into the price.
Set the slider to what you pay in an average month. Everything else follows from that.
You would save about €650 a year, 36% of what you pay now
We work across Marbella and the towns either side of it. Each has its own kind of housing, its own roofs and its own town hall, and all three change how a solar project goes: pines in Elviria, community statutes in Nueva Andalucía, salt air in Puerto Banús.
Short answers to what people usually want to know first. The rules were checked in November 2026.
For a home, between about €1,000 and €1,500 for each kWp installed, IVA included. In round numbers: €3,500 to €4,500 for a small 3 kWp system, €5,000 to €7,500 for 5 kWp, and €10,000 to €13,000 for 10 kWp. A battery adds roughly €3,000 to €4,000 for 5 kWh or €4,500 to €6,500 for 10 kWh.
What moves the price is the roof more than the panels: how it is reached, what it is made of, how far the cable has to run to your consumer unit. That is why we quote after seeing it. Our cost guide breaks the figures down.
No. Many websites still quote one, but Marbella’s 2026 tax ordinance has no IBI rebate for solar. What Marbella does offer is a 95% rebate on the construction tax (ICIO) for the solar part of the work. It has to be requested when the paperwork is filed, and we do that for you.
Other town halls differ. Estepona discounts ICIO by 50%. Mijas approved a 50% IBI rebate in October 2026 that is expected to apply from 2027. We check the ordinance for your municipality when we quote.
Not a building licence. In Andalucía, solar panels on an existing building on urban land are handled with a declaración responsable, a signed declaration filed with the town hall, and work can start once it is filed. We prepare and file it.
The exceptions are protected buildings and their surroundings, which need approval from the heritage authority first. In Marbella’s old town we check with the planning office before designing anything.
Not on their own. A standard solar inverter is required to shut down when the grid fails, so that it cannot feed electricity into lines people may be working on. Many owners found this out during the Iberian blackout of 28 April 2025.
To keep running you need a battery and an inverter with a backup function, wired so that the house, or the circuits you choose, is isolated from the grid when it goes down. It is worth deciding at the design stage; adding it later costs more.
Yes, more easily than most people think. Under article 17.1 of the Horizontal Property Act, a renewable energy system, whether shared or for one owner’s private use on the communal roof, can be approved by one third of the owners representing one third of the participation quotas. Owners who do not vote for a shared system do not pay for it, and can join later by paying their share.
We can attend the owners’ meeting with a design and the figures, which tends to make the vote straightforward.
Tell us about the property and we will reply within one working day. The survey takes about an hour. A few days later you have a written quote with a drawing of your roof and the output we expect from it.
It helps to have a recent electricity bill to hand, but you can send the request without one.
Thank you. We will reply within one working day, usually with a couple of questions about your roof and a time for the survey.
