Solar energy potential in Zamora

Castilla y León has approximately 3,000 hours of sunshine a year - more than the national average of 2,500 hours. We can compare the potential of Zamora (2,858 hours) with that of some northern European cities where solar energy is normal, such as Berlin and Amsterdam. The latter have 1,728 and 1,662 hours of sunshine per year, respectively, so you can now draw your own conclusions about the great photovoltaic capacity that Zamora has! 💪☀️

Annual photovoltaic energy production in Zamora

To calculate your photovoltaic production in Zamora, let's take as an example a solar installation with 1.2 kWp of installed power, where the system will have an optimal inclination of 35º to the south, and an expected system loss of 14%. The result will give us an annual production of photovoltaic energy of 1,865.63 kWh. The months with the highest production are June, July and August with 185; 204 and 201 kWh, respectively. In case of opting for a 2.4 kWp photovoltaic self-consumption unit (twice the installed power than in the previous case), an annual production of 3,731.26 kWh could be expected (also yielding twice the production per year).

 According to the Red Eléctrica de España (REE), Spanish households -and therefore in Zamora- consume an average of 9 kWh per day and approximately 270 kWh per month, which which represents about 3,240 kWh/year.Grid electricity prices in 2021-2022 have averaged around €0.225/kWh (€225/MWh). A home without a photovoltaic energy system on the roof that consumes 270 kWh per month, would pay around €60 on average per month in the variable part of the electricity bill referring to consumption.

Inclination and orientation in Zamora

In Spain, the ideal average inclination of solar panels varies between 20° and 40°, and it is a concept that is closely linked to the latitude of the country. The closer it is to the Ecuador line, the angle of inclination of the panels will be less, since the sun's rays will hit perpendicularly. The inclination of most of the houses in Spain is between 20° and 35°.

South-facing self-consumption solar panels in Zamora with an optimal tilt of 35º will produce the most electricity, but placing modules facing east or west may also be worthwhile. East-facing solar panels in Zamora will produce more electricity in the morning, while west-facing ones will produce more in the afternoon.

Frequently asked questions about photovoltaic installation in Zamora

How much does it cost to install solar panels in Zamora?

How profitable is a photovoltaic installation in Zamora? Are solar panels worth it?

From 4-5 to 6-7 years is the amortization of the investment, assuming that bonuses have been counted in the first case, and without any kind of subsidies in the second.
