Around Cártama and out in the Guadalhorce Valley, many people live in detached villas and fincas with plenty of space, a private pool and large roofs. This is exactly where solar panels make a big difference, as the system can be sized to cover a significant share of the household's electricity needs. In summer, air conditioning and pool pumps run at full capacity – at the same time as the sun produces the most electricity. In other words, you generate your own power exactly when your consumption is at its highest.

What you gain with solar panels in Cártama:

• A lower electricity bill, especially in summer
• A higher property value
• A more attractive home to rent out
• Pool heating using solar energy
• Charging your electric car with your own electricity
• Compensation from your electricity company for surplus power

Do you have a house in the countryside or on the outskirts of Cártama? Then a battery can be a good addition. It stores the surplus from the day so you can use it in the evening, and with a backup power function you still have electricity during temporary power cuts.
