Solar panels in Mallorca

Photovoltaic solar panels require minimal maintenance. An annual inspection by a qualified technician is generally recommended to check the mechanical components of the structure and ensure the electrical safety of the system.

At MASRED Engineering, we carry out this inspection and provide the certificate required by current regulations. We comply with all the requirements of Royal Decree 1699/2011 for generating facilities connected to the electrical grid.

In Mallorca, there are various opportunities for assistance and grants aimed at promoting the installation of solar panels and the use of renewable energy. At MASRED Engineering, we offer personalized service without you having to worry about a thing.

• Regional or autonomous programs: The Balearic Islands government has implemented subsidy and aid programs for solar energy, including the European Next Generation subsidy and the Balearic Islands’ FOTOPAR program.

• Tax incentives: There are potential tax benefits for those who choose to install solar panels in Mallorca. These benefits may include deductions on income tax or property tax, providing an additional incentive for implementing solar energy.

• Preferential financing: Some financial institutions offer favorable financing terms for installing solar systems in Mallorca. These loans or lines of credit may have lower interest rates or more flexible terms, making investment in solar energy easier and more affordable.

Photovoltaic installations in Mallorca offer a wide range of applications beyond just providing electricity. These are some of the main applications of photovoltaic installations in Mallorca:

• Residential self-consumption: Many homes in Mallorca choose to install solar panels to cover part or all of their energy needs. With rooftop photovoltaic installations, you’ll generate electricity for use directly in your home, thus reducing your dependence on the conventional electricity grid and saving on your electricity bill.

• Industrial and commercial self-consumption: Companies can also benefit from solar energy in Mallorca. At MASRED Engineering, we specialize in generating solar energy in the workplace, which not only reduces operating costs but also contributes to improving the company’s image of environmental responsibility. Sectors such as hospitality, agriculture, and manufacturing are just a few examples of businesses that can take advantage of the benefits of solar energy.

• Water pumping: In Mallorca, where water is a valuable resource, solar energy is increasingly being used for pumping water from wells, irrigating crops, and providing drinking water in rural areas. Solar pumping systems are economically viable and environmentally friendly, making them an attractive option for sustainable water management.

• Electrification of homes and remote communities: In rural areas of Mallorca, where grid connection is limited or nonexistent, solar energy plays a fundamental role in the electrification of homes and communities. Photovoltaic installations make it possible to bring electricity to remote areas, improving the quality of life of their inhabitants and providing opportunities for socioeconomic development.

• Electric vehicles: Electric mobility is booming in Mallorca, and installing solar panels can complement this trend. Using solar energy to charge electric vehicles reduces dependence on fossil fuels and contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, the solar energy used to charge electric vehicles can come from photovoltaic installations in parking lots or charging stations. The Balearic government has specific subsidies for this application; contact us without obligation!

• Energy storage: Combining photovoltaic installations with energy storage systems, such as batteries, allows you to maximize the use of solar energy. Excess electricity generated during the day is stored in batteries for use at night or during times of low solar radiation. This solution improves energy self-sufficiency and provides a constant supply of electricity.
