What do I need to install solar panels on my home?
Available space on the roof.
For the installation of solar panels, it is important that your home has a sufficiently large roof, ideally with a surface area of at least 25 m². In addition, you should ensure that the space is free of shadows for most of the day, which will allow the panels to capture the maximum amount of sunlight possible.
Roof pitch and orientation.
A rooffacing southis ideal for maximizing solar energy collection. In addition, it is recommended that the roof pitch be between 30 and 40 degreesfor maximum performance. If your roof does not have the proper pitch, special structures are available that allow you to adjust the panels to the optimal angle.
Roof condition.
Before installing solar panels you should make sure your roof is in good condition. If repairs or renovations are needed, we recommend that they be made before the panels are installed to avoid future problems.
Local permits and regulations.
Each municipality may have different regulations for the installation of solar panels. It is essential to verify the legal requirements and apply for the necessary permits. Check with your local council about the procedures you need to follow. Also, if you live in a community of neighbors, you will need the approval of the board to proceed with the installation of the solar panels.
Are solar panels worth it?
It's true that installing solar panels involves an initial investment, but the long-term economic and environmental benefits can make it a very wise decision.
Savings on the electricity bill.
One of the most outstanding benefits is the savings on bills. From the moment you start generating your own power, you will notice a significant decrease in your expenses. It is estimated that, depending on the size of your installation, you can save between 50% and 70%.
Environmental benefits
Installing solar panels also contributes to reducing the carbon footprint. By using a renewable energy and clean, you help decrease dependence on fossil fuels. Every kilowatt hour (kWh) you generate with solar panels avoids the CO2 emissions that would otherwise be produced by conventional power plants.
Subsidies and grants available.
In Spain, there are grants and subsidies available for those wishing to install solar panels on their homes, which can make the initial investment much more affordable. Among these are state and regional programs that can reduce the cost of installation by up to 50%, in addition to the fiscal benefits that exist in some municipalities, such as reductions in local taxes.
As you can see, installing solar panels is a very beneficial long-term investment and even more so if you can enjoy all the benefits of our Solar Wallet. If your home meets the requirements we have mentioned, we encourage you to consider the option of going solar and moving to the sustainable and energy efficient side.
