Project at a Glance
Project details
- Location: Benahavís
- Solar panels: 20 × AIKO Black Edition 510 W (10.2 kWp)
- Inverter: Growatt WIT 10K-HU three-phase hybrid inverter, 10 kW
- Battery storage: Growatt HOPE 16.0LM-A1, 16 kWh
- Mounting: tiled roof
- Handover: legalisation of the installation included in the price
- Installation time: 5 days
Why This System Size
The system uses 20 AIKO 510 W panels (10.2 kWp) with a 16 kWh battery. We size every system from the electricity bill and the usable roof area measured on site.
If you are weighing storage for a similar home, see our guide on whether a battery is worth it, and our overview of solar panel installation in Benahavís.
How We Did It, Step by Step
1. Survey and design
- We visit the property and measure the roof to see how much area is usable.
- We analyse the electricity bill to understand how much energy the home uses and when.
- We size the system from the consumption and the roof area.
2. Quote, contract and delivery
- We send a written proposal with the system size, equipment and price.
- After the contract is agreed, we deliver the mounting structure and the equipment.
3. Installation
- Mounting structure: panels installed on the tiled roof.
- Panels and cabling: we installed the 20 panels and the DC and AC cabling.
- Protection: electrical protection devices were installed.
- Inverter and battery: the hybrid inverter and the 16 kWh battery were installed and connected to the property and the grid.
- Configuration: system configuration and monitoring setup.
4. Handover and monitoring
- Legalisation: we completed the legalisation and registration of the installation.
- Certification: the client received the corresponding certification.
Grants and Savings
Savings depend on consumption, the tariff and the surplus price, so we calculate them separately for each property. Incentives depend on the municipality, the date and the call, so we confirm them case by case. See our guide to solar subsidies in Andalucía.
Aftercare Included
- 3-year warranty on the installation, extendable to 5 years after a free on-site inspection
- Panels and inverters are covered by the manufacturer warranties
- Monitoring set up for the system

Questions About This Project
It is a 10.2 kWp hybrid solar and battery system: 20 AIKO 510 W panels, a Growatt three-phase hybrid 10 kW inverter and a 16 kWh battery.
We combine the usable roof area measured on site with the consumption shown on the electricity bill (how much and when the home uses energy). The system is then sized to fit both.
KiDi Solar gives a 3-year warranty on the installation, extendable to 5 years after a free on-site inspection. Panels and inverters are covered by the manufacturer warranties. Read the warranty policy.
