Process Overview

Assessment, design, applicable procedures, installation, testing and handover are separate stages. Access, equipment, documentation and third-party decisions determine the schedule; agree milestones and dependencies in writing.

1
Initial Assessment & Consultation
Confirm availability

Contact us for a free consultation. We'll assess your property, electricity usage, and energy goals.

What to Expect:

  • Call +34 711 004 350 or complete our online form
  • Provide recent electricity bills (last 3 months)
  • Schedule a site visit at a convenient time
  • Discuss your budget and savings expectations

Tip: Have your electricity bills ready. We need to see your annual consumption to properly size the system.

2
Site Survey
Depends on access and scope

We visit your property to assess roof condition, solar orientation, shading, and technical feasibility.

What to Expect:

  • Measure roof area and verify structural condition
  • Assess orientation, tilt, shading and the timing of generation against demand
  • Identify shading from trees or buildings
  • Inspect electrical panel and connection point
  • Take photos and measurements for system design

Tip: Ensure your roof is accessible. Move any garden furniture or vehicles blocking access.

3
System Design & Quote
Depends on design and equipment

We create a custom solar system design optimized for your property and energy needs.

What to Expect:

  • Size the system based on your electricity consumption
  • Select premium quality panels and equipment
  • Calculate annual solar production and expected savings
  • Prepare detailed proposal with itemized costs
  • Include ROI projections and payback period

Tip: Review the proposal carefully. Ask questions about warranties, maintenance, and system monitoring.

4
Permit Applications
Depends on applicable procedures

Agree responsibility for the applicable municipal, regional and distribution procedures before work starts.

What to Expect:

  • Submit documentation to local town hall
  • Apply for building permits if required
  • Register system with regional energy authority
  • Check applicable connection procedures with the distributor serving the property
  • Keep you informed of permit progress

Confirm requirements and responsibilities with the municipality and distributor. Do not start work requiring prior authorisation before obtaining it; there is no universal municipal turnaround.

5
System Installation
According to agreed scope

Install panels, inverter, protection and monitoring to the agreed design and applicable requirements.

What to Expect:

  • Mount structures and rails to the design and access plan
  • Install modules and wiring within the agreed schedule
  • Install inverter, protection and monitoring to exact compatibility requirements
  • Final system testing and safety verification
  • Complete site cleanup

Tip: Plan to be home during installation. We'll need access to your electrical panel and may briefly cut power.

6
Inspection & Grid Connection
Depends on testing and procedures

Testing, documents and commissioning procedures for the system and applicable requirements.

What to Expect:

  • Confirm whether an administrative inspection applies and who requests it
  • Address any minor issues if needed
  • Confirm metering and configuration with the property's distributor
  • Commission only after applicable tests and requirements are satisfied
  • Hand over results, instructions and documents applicable to the agreed scope

Generation, metering, registration and compensation are separate processes. Check the status of each before assuming the system may operate or receive credits.

7
Commissioning & Training
Depends on documents and training

We teach you how to use and monitor your new solar system.

What to Expect:

  • Demonstrate the system monitoring app
  • Explain how to read solar production metrics
  • Review basic maintenance procedures
  • Provide support contact information
  • Answer all your questions

Tip: Download the monitoring app before our visit. We can set it up together.
