    Where we work across Málaga province

    We work with our own crew from Coín, so the same schedule covers solar panel installations in Marbella, Estepona, Málaga city and Torremolinos, self-consumption in Vélez-Málaga and solar energy across the Axarquía, plus inland towns: Cártama, Coín, Alhaurín de la Torre and Alhaurín el Grande. On the coast we size for air conditioning and the pool; inland we always add outage backup with a Deye hybrid inverter or, on shaded roofs, Huawei with optimisers.

    EV charging in Málaga and Marbella

    Distances here are short: Marbella to Málaga airport is about 50 km, so most residents charge at home two or three times a week. A 7.4 kW charger linked to a 6–8 kWp system in Marbella or Málaga charges almost entirely on your own solar production, at roughly EUR 0.03 per km instead of EUR 0.12 on the grid.

    Communities in Fuengirola and Benalmádena can share one installation across several parking spaces. Ask for a charging study.
