Is it a good idea to go solar in Castellon?

​Castellon in Spain enjoys an impressive 2,760 hours of sunshine each year. Meanwhile, Paris gets about 1,662 hours, and London around 1,410 hours of sunshine each year. This makes Castellon an excellent location for harnessing solar energy.​

On average, Castellon receives an average of 5.59 peak solar hours each day – that’s the number of hours when the sun is strong enough for solar panels to perform at peak output. During these hours you can power your home 100% on your own solar electricity (depending on the size of your setup).

To maximize energy production, it’s recommended to install solar panels in Castellon at a tilt angle of approximately 38 degrees facing south. With this, you can reduce your electricity bills by 80% or more over the year with a home solar installation.

Savings are typically higher in summer and slightly lower in winter, but the overall financial benefits are substantial.​

Keep in mind, every home is unique. Factors like your roof’s angle, orientation, and potential shading from nearby structures or trees can influence energy generation. In some cases, installing panels on a carport or in the garden might be the best way to capture the most sunlight.
