Solar panel installation in Murcia: systems sized to your consumption
Panels, mounting and inverter adapted to your roof in La Unión, Cartagena or on the coast, with the paperwork included in the process.
What a solar panel installation includes in La Unión and Cartagena
A solar panel installation means mounting photovoltaic panels on your roof so the sunlight becomes electricity, which an inverter turns into alternating current ready to use at home. Energy you do not use at that moment can be exported to the grid and credited on your bill, or stored in a battery if you add storage.
In this area roofs vary a lot: low village houses with tiled roofs in the old town of La Unión, villas and townhouses with flat roofs in Los Belones and El Algar, and holiday homes in Cabo de Palos and La Manga whose consumption soars with the air conditioning. With close to 3,000 hours of sun a year, a well-oriented kWp usually generates between 1,500 and 1,700 kWh annually, so system power is worked out from your bills, not from a generic table.
When solar panels make sense for your home
- Your electricity bill jumps in summer because of air conditioning, a pool or home climate control.
- You live in a villa, townhouse or low house with a roof or flat terrace without big shadows.
- You are building or renovating and can prepare the solar system from the start.
- You want your home ready to charge an electric car with your own energy.
- You want to depend less on the grid by pairing panels with a battery.

Frequently asked questions
For most residential roof installations a simple notification or responsible declaration to the town hall is enough, lighter than a full building licence. The exact procedure depends on the power and on whether the building is protected, and it is confirmed before work begins.
South-facing roofs produce most, but east and west also work well, losing only 10% to 20%. Shade from buildings, chimneys or trees at certain hours matters more, and it is checked before power is proposed.
It depends on your annual consumption in kWh. A family home with average use usually needs between 8 and 14 panels, and a home with a pool and heavy air conditioning may need more. It is worked out from your real bills.
The owner of the property and the electricity contract must be involved. If you own a holiday home, we explain how to size the system and handle the surplus energy.
