Residential Solar
Solar installations for single-family homes and residential communities with intelligent energy management. We handle the study, the installation and the paperwork, with monitoring of consumption and generation to understand and adjust how energy is used.
Residential solar, done properly
We approach residential solar the same way we approach industrial energy projects: as a system that will run for twenty years or more, not as a catalogue product. Every project starts with a preliminary study of the home, its roof and its real consumption pattern, because the right size for an installation depends on how and when energy is actually used, not on how many panels fit on the roof.
We handle the full cycle: study and proposal, installation, legalisation and paperwork (including the arrangements with the grid operator and the supplier so that surplus compensation applies from the start) and commissioning with monitoring of generation and consumption. That monitoring matters: the value of self-consumption depends on how much energy you use while it is being generated, and seeing both flows in real time lets you adjust habits with actual data.
We work with single-family homes and with residential communities, where collective self-consumption requires a more careful study and a longer administrative process. We also prepare the technical documentation for public self-consumption grants, such as the IVACE programmes in the Valencian Community, when an applicable call is open. For company or plant projects, see industrial solar or our full range of solar installations.
How it connects to the system
The energy layer connects to plant data via Connect and to interpretation and automation via AI.
Other solutions
- Solar Installations
Design, installation and commissioning of industrial and residential photovoltaic systems. We cover the full cycle: preliminary study, sizing, assembly, legalisation and connection, with the installation ready to be monitored and integrated into operations.
- Industrial Solar
Photovoltaic installations for companies and industrial plants with self-consumption, surplus management and integrated monitoring. The installation connects with operational data to give traceability between generation, consumption and production.
- Energy Efficiency
Analysis and optimisation of energy consumption integrated with operational data. We study how, when and where energy is used, cross that consumption with real activity and propose concrete measures to reduce costs and improve the performance of the operation.
Frequently asked questions
- What does a residential solar installation with Captia include?
- We cover the full process: a preliminary study of the home and its consumption, sizing of the system, assembly, administrative paperwork and commissioning. The installation is monitored, so you can see how much energy you generate and how much you use. We do not just deliver panels on a roof; we deliver a system you can understand and adjust.
- Can I install solar self-consumption in a residential community?
- Yes. We work with single-family homes and with communities of owners. For a community, the preliminary study looks at the available roof, the consumption of the interested neighbours and how the generated energy is shared. The paperwork is somewhat more involved than for an individual home, and we handle it as part of the service.
- What is surplus compensation?
- When your installation generates more energy than you are using at that moment, the surplus is fed into the grid. With surplus compensation, your electricity supplier deducts part of the value of that energy from your bill. It is the usual mechanism in residential self-consumption and we arrange it when legalising the installation, so compensation applies from the start.
- What maintenance does a home solar installation need?
- Less than people tend to think, but not zero. It is worth periodically checking the panels, the connections and the inverter, and making sure generation stays at the expected levels. Monitoring helps a lot here: if production drops for no apparent reason, the data shows it before your bill does.
