Solar self-consumption in Fuerteventura: project, legalisation and surplus credit
With Fuerteventura's sunshine and electricity prices, self-consumption pays for itself within a few years. I handle the part nobody tells you about: the technical project, legalisation with Industry and registration for surplus compensation.
A self-consumption installation has two sides: the physical one (panels, inverter, mounting) and the administrative one (project, legalisation, surplus compensation). The second is what makes your installation legal and safe — and gets your utility to credit the energy you feed into the grid. That's my side.
What I do, and how I differ from an installer
Installers build the system. I'm the engineer who drafts the technical project, processes legalisation with Industry and arranges surplus compensation with your utility. I can work for you (end client) or for your installer as B2B technical support.
Process
- I assess your consumption, roof type and orientation.
- I draft the technical project.
- I process legalisation with Industry.
- I register surplus compensation with your utility.

Guidance estimate using average island irradiation (peak sun hours), 78% performance ratio and the RD 244/2019 surplus-compensation cap. It doesn't replace a technical study: to decide with your roof's and consumption's real data, ask me for the study (no obligation). Grants depend on the current call.
What about subsidies?
Grant calls (island council, Canary Islands Government, national funds) open and close in waves. When you tell me your case, I'll tell you what's open right then and whether you qualify — rather than promising a grant that may be gone by the time you sign.
Frequently asked questions
How much can I save with self-consumption in Fuerteventura?
It depends on your consumption, system size and how much energy you use during daylight. One utility bill is enough for me to give you a realistic range for your case — not a brochure figure.
I already have an installer — can you do just the legalisation?
Yes, it's one of my most common jobs: the installer builds, I sign the project, legalise with Industry and arrange the surplus compensation.
My system is installed but not legalised — can it be fixed?
Yes, it can be regularised. I inspect the installation, prepare the technical paperwork and legalise it so you can activate compensation and avoid trouble with the grid operator.
