About the Project

The client wanted a solar installation to reduce their electricity bills and take control of rising energy costs at their home.

Marblanc Solar installed a 7.2kW solar energy system, which will also reduce electricity costs by over €1,850 a year.

Background

The homeowner in San Pedro de Alcántara, Marbella wanted to go solar primarily to reduce their electricity bills, especially as their villa’s energy consumption had steadily increased over recent years.

Marblanc Solar has completed many installations in Marbella, and homeowners in the area regularly choose us for our proven track record and transparent approach. We offer a free solar survey, which includes an on-site visit, drone analysis, shading scan, and a detailed proposal.

Our survey engineer, Alan Manning, discovered that the client was spending approximately €2,011.68 per year on electricity based on their past utility bills.

One of the key considerations was integrating a battery and EV charger while maximising production from the available roof areas. Using our advanced Pylon software, we simulated annual production, assessed shading impact, and calculated the optimal placement of the 12 panels to ensure the highest possible self-consumption and return on investment.

Our proposal is expected to reduce electricity bills by €1,850 per year, lowering the average monthly bill from €167.64 to just €12.68. This dramatic reduction provides both immediate savings and long-term financial security.

Equipment Installed

  • 12 × JA Solar DeepBlue 4.0 JAM72D40-600/LB (600W)
  • Huawei SUN2000-8K-MAP0 (8.8kW) inverter
  • Huawei LUNA2000-7-S1 (6.9kWh / 6.9kWh usable) battery
  • Huawei SCharger-22KS-S0 EV charger

Solution

Our experienced team installed a 7.2kWp solar energy system across the most productive roof areas of the villa in San Pedro de Alcántara, Marbella, ensuring optimal sun exposure throughout the day. The system includes high-efficiency JA Solar panels, a Huawei inverter, integrated battery storage, and an EV charger for complete energy independence.

During installation, we carefully routed and concealed all cabling to preserve the aesthetics of the villa, protected the roof structure during mounting, and secured the solar panels to withstand extreme weather conditions common on the Costa del Sol. The entire installation was completed faster than the client expected, with minimal disruption to their daily routine.

As part of our post-installation support, we then secured an exclusive solar feed-in tariff with a virtual battery.

We then monitored the client’s electricity usage every day for two weeks to help optimise their appliance usage with plug timers and the use of our solar app. Finally, we assigned the client to one of our Monday–Sunday WhatsApp aftercare groups, should they have any questions.

Results

This installation in San Pedro de Alcántara, Marbella is expected to save the homeowner €1,850 per year, with a projected break-even period of 8–9 years. Their monthly electricity bill has been reduced from €167.64 to €12.68, meaning they now pay just 7.56% of their previous bill — a reduction of approximately 92.44%. This installation fulfilled our Marblanc Solar promise to reduce your bills by 80% or more, delivering outstanding financial and environmental benefits for the homeowner.
