Legal and safe installation

Why is it important to legalise your solar installation?

Installing solar panels without meeting legal requirements can have serious consequences: fines from the Regional Ministry for Ecological Transition, problems with the electricity distributor, invalidity of home insurance and inability to join the surplus compensation system.

A legalised photovoltaic installation has access to all legal benefits: surplus compensation (virtual battery), municipal IBI tax reductions and full protection against any claims.

⚠️
Illegal installations: a real risk

A solar installation without the CIE and without distributor registration can invalidate your home insurance in case of fire or other incidents. You also lose the right to surplus compensation and public grants.

At Placas Solares Benidorm we handle absolutely all the procedures. You have nothing to worry about.

Procedures and documentation

Documents required to legalise solar panels

Self-consumption regulations in the Valencian Community require a set of mandatory documents and procedures. We take care of all of them.

📄
Electrical Installation Certificate (CIE)

The fundamental document certifying that the installation complies with the Low Voltage Electrical Regulations (REBT). Signed by a licensed electrical installer.

🏛️
Administrative authorisation or notification

Depending on the installed power, a prior notification or administrative authorisation with the Regional Ministry for Ecological Transition of the Valencian Community may be required.

🏠
Building permit or municipal notification

In some Alicante municipalities, solar panel installation requires a minor building permit or prior notification to the town council.

⚡
Notification to the electricity distributor

Notification to Iberdrola or the relevant distributor is mandatory so they can register the supply point as a self-consumption installation.

🔄
Surplus compensation contract

To take advantage of the virtual battery, a surplus compensation contract must be taken out with your electricity supplier.

🗂️
Registration with IVACE or SEATE

For installations above a certain power level, registration with the Valencian Energy and Tourism Agency or the Ministry for Ecological Transition is required.

Benefits of a legal installation

What are the advantages of having a legalised solar installation?

Access to virtual battery

Only legalised installations can join the surplus compensation system and accumulate energy credits on the bill for night-time use.

IBI tax reduction

Costa Blanca town councils offer IBI reductions of up to 50% for properties with a legalised solar installation, for several years.

Access to subsidies

Only legal installations are eligible for the MOVES III ministry grants, which can cover up to 40% of the installation cost.

Home insurance coverage

A legalised installation is covered by your home insurance against fires or other incidents. Illegal installations can void the policy.

Higher property value

A legalised solar installation increases the cadastral and market value of the property.

Full legal security

Avoid fines from the regional government, distributor claims and potential issues when selling or mortgaging the property.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about solar legalisation

An unlegalised solar installation can result in administrative fines from the regional government; loss of the right to surplus compensation; possible invalidation of home insurance in the event of a claim; and difficulties when selling or mortgaging the property. If you have an unlegalised installation, we can help you regularise it.
The average period to complete all legalisation procedures in the Marina Baixa is 3 to 6 weeks from the physical installation. The step that usually takes longest is the distributor notification and activation of the surplus compensation contract.
It depends on the installation power and local regulations. In general, installations up to 10 kW in detached homes may only require a prior notification. Higher-power installations or those in protected buildings may require a minor building permit. We assess your specific case.
Yes. We offer a legalisation service for existing installations regardless of who installed them. We inspect the installation, check it complies with current regulations and, if necessary, make the required technical adaptations before processing the legalisation.
The surplus compensation service allows the energy your solar panels generate but you do not consume to be exported to the grid. In return, your electricity supplier deducts that energy from your next bill. It is the most efficient way to use 100% of your panel output without installing a physical battery.
