Getting a quote for a solar PV system is the first step toward energy independence and lower electricity bills. At Solarea Tech, we help Spanish homeowners understand exactly what they need, how much it costs, and what savings to expect from solar panel installation.
This complete guide answers your question: “How do I get a quote for solar panels on my property?” We’ll walk you through the entire process, from preparation to comparing quotes and making the final decision.
What You Need Before Requesting a Solar Quote
Your annual electricity consumption: Check your electricity bills from the last 12 months and add up the total kWh consumed. This is the most critical information for sizing your solar system correctly. Most Spanish homes consume 2,500-6,000 kWh annually.
Property details: Your address, roof type (tile, flat, metal), available roof space, and roof orientation. South-facing roofs are optimal, but east and west orientations also work well.
Photos of your roof: Take photos showing your roof from different angles, including any obstacles like chimneys, vents, or shading from trees or nearby buildings.
Your goals: Want to eliminate electricity bills completely? Reduce them by 50%? Prepare for electric vehicle charging? Clear goals help installers recommend the right system.
Where to Request Solar Panel Quotes in Spain
Specialized solar companies: Dedicated solar installers like Solarea Tech offer expertise, competitive pricing, and comprehensive support. We focus exclusively on solar installations across Spain.
Online comparison platforms: Websites allow you to enter basic information and receive multiple quotes quickly. However, they may lack personalized consultation for complex installations.
Major electricity providers: Iberdrola, Endesa, and Naturgy offer solar services, but pricing may be higher than specialized installers.
Best approach: Request quotes from 2-3 specialized solar installers in your region for detailed, accurate proposals. At Solarea Tech, we provide free quotes with no obligation.

Step-by-Step: The Solar Quote Process
Step 1 – Initial contact: Provide your basic information—address, annual consumption, property type. Many installers provide preliminary estimates within 24 hours.
Step 2 – Remote assessment: Using satellite imagery, installers analyze your roof’s solar potential and calculate optimal system size.
Step 3 – On-site visit (recommended): A physical inspection ensures accurate assessment of roof structure, electrical panel capacity, and optimal panel placement. This visit typically takes 60-90 minutes.
Step 4 – Detailed quote: Receive comprehensive proposals with specifications, financial projections, and visual renderings showing how panels look on your roof.
Step 5 – Review and questions: Take time to understand every detail. Quality installers answer all questions without pressure tactics.
Step 6 – Decision: Most quotes remain valid 30-90 days, giving you time to compare options and make an informed decision.

- 5 kW system: €6,500 – €8,500
- 7 kW system: €8,500 – €11,000
- 10 kW system: €11,000 – €14,500

How to Compare Solar Quotes
Price per watt: Divide total cost by system size in watts. Example: €7,000 ÷ 5,000W = €1.40/watt. Quality installations in Spain cost €1.20-€1.60 per watt.
Equipment quality: Compare panel efficiency (look for 20%+), brand reputation (Tier 1 manufacturers), and warranty length (25+ years).
Energy estimates: Annual production projections should be similar across quotes. Verify estimates using your location’s solar hours.
Support services: Does the installer handle subsidy applications, provide monitoring systems, and offer long-term maintenance?

Red Flags: Warning Signs in Solar Quotes
❌ Unrealistic promises: Claims of 100% electricity bill elimination without batteries aren’t realistic
❌ No on-site visit: Complex properties require physical inspection, not just satellite images
❌ Vague specifications: Legitimate quotes specify exact panel models and technical details
❌ Pressure tactics: “Limited time offers” and urgency tactics signal poor business practices
❌ Full upfront payment: Standard deposits are 30-50%, not 100%
❌ Significantly underpriced: Quotes 30-40% below others often mean cut corners or hidden costs
