Vélez-Málaga
Warehouses, shops, farm packing houses and hospitality: self-consumption based on your load profile.
Solar for business · Vélez-Málaga
Vélez-Málaga is the commercial and farming centre of the Axarquía: industrial estates, shops, seaside hospitality, and packing houses handling avocados and mangoes. Almost all of them share one thing: they use electricity during the day, exactly when the panels produce. That is why self-consumption usually pays back faster for a business than for a home. We advise you from our office in the town.
We request your load profile from the distribution company and match it with the expected production of your roof, so the system is sized to use nearly everything it produces. On warehouses we check the roof (metal sheet, sandwich panel or fibre cement) and whether it can carry the structure. For shops and hospitality on the seafront we also look at air conditioning.
Our whole team speaks English, and Daniel Hill is a native speaker, so you can handle everything in English from the first call.

Rules and rebates
Placement must follow Planning Instruction no. 8: roof only, flush on sloping roofs and with limited height on flat roofs. Business installations may need extra paperwork depending on their size; we explain and handle it. The municipal IBI rebate applies to properties using solar energy, and it is worth checking whether yours meets its requirements.
