Fixing a panel to a roof for a grant-assisted installation.

If you are thinking about solar panels in Santa Pola, grants and rebates can reduce the cost. They depend on open calls and on local rules, so here is how they usually work.

Who awards the grants: IDAE and IVACE

IDAE funds are distributed in the Valencian Community through IVACE. A call sets the amounts, the eligible costs and the deadlines.

Local rebates: IBI and ICIO

A town hall can rebate property tax (IBI) for several years and the construction tax (ICIO) on solar works. Percentages and conditions are in its tax ordinance.

What is usually subsidised

Panels, inverter, mounting, installation and, in some calls, storage batteries. Each call defines its list.

Usual technical requirements

A registered installer, certified equipment, a technical report and the system registered with the authorities.

Why you must apply before installing

Many calls require the application to be submitted before work starts. Signing a contract or beginning the installation first can disqualify you.

An indicative calculation

On a 6,000 euro installation, a grant covering part of the eligible cost plus a tax rebate could reduce the net amount noticeably. Real figures depend on the open call and your town hall.
