 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Перед установкой солнечных панелей рассматривал несколько компаний, сравнивал цены, оборудование и подход к работе. В итоге выбрал Kidi Group — и это оказалось правильным решением. Спасибо всей команде за профессионализм и качественную установку солнечной электростанции 18 кВт. Все работы выполнили аккуратно, в срок, всегда были на связи и отвечали на все вопросы. Видно, что работают с опытом и заботятся о результате. Смело рекомендую всем, кто планирует установку солнечных панелей.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We installed solar panels with batteries at our house in Marbella a couple of months ago. Honestly, I spoke with a few companies before, but ended up choosing KiDi Solar — and it was the right decision. Everything was explained in a simple way (I’m not very technical), they helped us choose the right system, and the installation went smoothly. The team worked clean and finished faster than I expected. Now the best part — we already see the difference in the electricity bill, and we also feel more more calm knowing that we have backup power if there’s a blackout. Communication was easy, always quick replies, no stress. If you’re in Marbella or nearby and thinking about solar, I would definitely recommend Kidi-solar! Thank you guys!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently installed a 10kW solar system with Longi 550W panels in Mijas. I’m very satisfied with my choice – from consultation to installation everything went smoothly and professionally. The system works with a hybrid inverter and batteries, which allows me to use electricity even in the evenings. After the first month, I already noticed significant savings on my bills. True professionals!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Хочу поблагодарить команду KiDi-solar за установку солнечных панелей. Всё сделали быстро и аккуратно, видно, что ребята знают своё дело. Объяснили каждый этап установки, рассказали, как работает система — стало понятно даже мне, хотя раньше в этом ничего не понимал. Теперь моя станция может работать автономно, и я спокоен: даже если снова отключат электричество, как это уже было месяц назад по всей Испании, у меня дома будет свет. Рад, что выбрал именно их. Если ищете надёжное решение «под ключ» — смело рекомендую

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I contacted this company and have not regretted it. My acquaintance was right, these guys are very punctual, very quickly did the installation of the panels that indicated on the pictures that are included in the file with the estimate, which also indicates the contract, prices and their obligations. Everything was done on time. Battery working good in the night. After the installation it was nice when they offered to make a discount, I did not understand how it is so, but I was pleasantly surprised. Thank you and good luck to you.
