The Algarve, with its sunny climate and stunning landscapes, offers ideal conditions for installing solar panels.
Taking advantage of the abundance of sunlight in the region not only contributes to environmental sustainability, but also provides significant savings on energy bills.
If you are considering investing in solar energy, the Algarve is the perfect place to start this ecological and economical journey.
The Algarve benefits from one of the sunniest climates in Portugal, with long periods of sunshine throughout the year. This factor increases the efficiency and productivity of photovoltaic systems, making investment in solar energy even more attractive and profitable.
The ideal orientation for solar panels in the Algarve is to the south. However, if they are facing east or west, the losses are not too great. As the Algarve is located at a latitude of 37º, the ideal angle for installing solar panels on the roof should also be around 37º, although closer angles in winter (up to +15º) and less closed angles in summer (up to -15º) favor the production of the panels during these seasons.
The levels of solar irradiation, the angle of inclination chosen and the condition of the roof significantly affect the energy production capacity. It is also important to consider the size of the photovoltaic system and the quality of the equipment installed. For example, the inclusion of batteries influences the amount of energy generated that can actually be used.

In order to carry out a photovoltaic installation, the owner must obtain certain permits. At Voltaicos, we take care of all the necessary inquiries and requests to ensure that the photovoltaic installation complies with the regulations.
Studies indicate that solar panels can increase the value of a house, although this depends on several factors, such as the expected durability of the panels and the quality of their components. Although it is not guaranteed that every photovoltaic installation will increase the value of the property, it is safe to say that a well-executed installation with high-quality materials tends to be advantageous at the time of sale.
Keeping your photovoltaic system in good condition is crucial for the performance of the panels. Occasional cleaning with water and a brush is enough to keep them working optimally.
In Loulé, as in the rest of Portugal, anyone who produces photovoltaic energy can choose a supplier to sell their surplus energy. Although the amounts paid per kWh in Portugal are lower than in other countries (around €0.07/kWh, depending on the supplier), this sale still contributes to additional monthly savings.
The Algarve has enormous potential for the development of solar energy. In addition to these advantages, there is also the feeling of autonomy provided by the installation of solar panels, allowing greater control over energy costs in a scenario of unpredictable prices.
Yes, with enough roof space and sun exposure, solar panels can potentially meet most or all of a home's electricity needs through solar production.
Solar panels normally have a useful life of at least 30 years. With performance guarantees ensuring high-efficiency maintenance throughout their operational life.
The number of solar panels you need depends on your home's energy consumption and the space available on the roof. Installers can carry out calculations to determine your needs. For expert advice and to calculate the ideal number of panels, take a look at our free simulator.
