Solar energy potential in Rivas-Vaciamadrid

The Madrid region has approximately 2,700 hours of sunshine per year - slightly more than the national average of 2,500 hours - and an average temperature of 14.5°C. We can compare the potential of the Spanish capital (Madrid) and Rivas-Vaciamadrid with some northern European cities where solar energy is a normality, such as Berlin and Amsterdam. They have 1,728 and 1,662 hours of sunshine per year, respectively, so you can draw your own conclusions about Rivas-Vaciamadrid's photovoltaic capacity! 💪☀️

Annual photovoltaic energy production in Rivas-Vaciamadrid

To calculate your photovoltaic production in Rivas-Vaciamadrid, let's take as an example a solar installation of 1.2 kWp of installed power, where the system will have an optimum inclination of 36º to the south, and the result will give us an annual photovoltaic energy production of 1,945.5 kWh. The months with the highest production are June, July and August with 186, 203 and 199 kWh, respectively. In case of opting for a 2.4 kWp PV self-consumption system (twice the installed power as in the previous case), an annual production of 3,887 kWh could be expected (also doubling the annual production).

 According to the Spanish Electricity Grid (REE), Spanish households - and therefore in Rivas-Vaciamadrid - consume an average of 9 kWh per day and 270 kWh per month approximately, which represents about 3,240 kWh/year. Grid electricity prices in 2021-2022 have averaged around 0.225 €/kWh (225 €/MWh). A household in Rivas-Vaciamadrid without a rooftop PV system consuming 270 kWh per month would pay around €60 per month on average in the variable part of the electricity bill related to consumption.

Inclination and orientation in Rivas-Vaciamadrid

In Spain, the ideal average inclination of solar panels varies between 20 and 40 degrees, and is a concept that is closely linked to the latitude of the country. The closer it is to the equator, the smaller the angle of inclination of the panels will be, as the sun's rays will strike perpendicularly. The inclination of most houses in Spain is between 20 and 35 degrees. South facing solar panels for self-consumption in Rivas-Vaciamadrid with an optimum tilt of 36 degrees will produce the most electricity, but placing modules facing east or west can also be worthwhile. East-facing solar panels in Rivas-Vaciamadrid will produce more electricity in the morning, while west-facing panels will produce more in the afternoon.
