Solar panels
Maybe strange question..
Due to obvious amount of sunlight there are very few private properties with solar panels.
Can anyone advise please

It may be because many of the people who move to Spain are retired. I considered it when we moved out here, but it needs a large investment, and the effective pay-back period exceeded our probable life span.
We have friends who live in the Valencian province who don't have an electricity supply to their house, and so had to go for solar. This cost them about €10,000 (I think) and since then they've had to buy a new inverter, a new bank of batteries, and a new generator. Even though they've got ten solar panels, they still need to run the generator on quite a few winter days, due to the lower height of the sun and cloudy days.
