Hi

We will be living near lorca/peurto Lumbreras and would like to know any recommendations for solar to be installed as well as air conditioning

Thank you

Hi, I would highly recommend Ecocorp Solar.  They do all the necessary paperwork and the installation team were on time and very proffessional.

did you go for the virtual battery and does it work how it says it does.

Ive been looking for a company like this that does the virtual battery. Really great idea.

Hi Andy, have you swapped over to the virtual battery? I am thinking of installing solar. I will only be using my villa for a few months every year, mainly in the winter, so if the virtual battery works as described then I can store up my virtual battery during the summer and use it in the winter, whilst still getting some self generated power in the winter months as well.

I will have very little 'standard operational' consumption when I'm not resident(fridge/freezer and pool pump), so should be able to store up a lot to tide me over.

Does that seem about right?

Good morning Nick, yes we switched a few months.  We used Ecocorp Solar who did all the necessary work and looked after all the paperwork.  The virtual battery is just that, you store what you generate and draw down on that when you are not.  I believe they reset to zero end of each year however.
