SOL-29
Before the owners vote on a works order worth thousands, we put the numbers down: how much energy can be shared, how to split it, which filings it needs and how much each scenario could save.

Shared solar lets several neighbours draw from one solar installation and split its output through allocation coefficients they agree between themselves. At Captia Energy the feasibility study costs €490 with VAT included, full permitting starts at €1,490 and later changes from €149. We file and follow the case; the authority signs the decision.
These service records were last reviewed against the law on .
It is not one individual installation multiplied by the number of neighbours. It is a single installation associated with several supply points, with its own rules on proximity and mode, and with a split the building agrees and that is communicated to the grid operator. The owners meeting decides; we supply the numbers, the documents and the filings.
Five services, each with a published price. The amounts include VAT. Any fees the authorities charge, where the procedure requires them, are separate and passed on at their exact amount: they are not our revenue.

Five steps until the owners meeting has the numbers in front of it. The meeting calendar is set by the building.
You send us the supply points, the consumption data and the building details.
We model output and consumption hour by hour and work out the recommended capacity.
Our turnaround: 5 working days
Counted from: The day all the consumption data is in.
We do not promise: A favourable result: it may turn out not to pay off.
We build the allocation scenarios and the map of filings each one requires.
Our turnaround: 4 working days

We do not promise: That every neighbour will agree with whichever split works out best.
We present the findings in a meeting built so you can defend them to the owners.
Our turnaround: 5 working days

We do not promise: Attending the owners meeting, which is not included.
The building votes. The meeting calendar is yours, not ours.
From the owners resolution to checking, neighbour by neighbour, that the split reaches their bill.
We freeze the participant list, the capacity, the mode and the coefficients as the baseline.
Our turnaround: 3 working days

We do not promise: That the list will not change: if it does, it is a change request and is billed.
We prepare the technical and administrative documents for the scope contracted.
Our turnaround: 15 working days

This is what we need from the building to accept the engagement. Our turnaround starts counting the day the file is complete, not the day it is paid.
List of supply points that may take part
Required
Without knowing which supplies join, there is no split to calculate.
Twelve months of consumption for each supply point, or permission to look it up
Required
A correct split is calculated on the real load curve. With a single month's bill the scenario comes out wrong.
Building and roof data: area, orientation, obstacles, photos
Required
It sets the capacity that fits and the estimated output.
Distances between the roof and the participating supplies
Required
Collective self-consumption has proximity conditions; without distances we cannot confirm the group is possible.
Building data: tax number, managing agent, relevant minutes
Helpful, not blocking
It helps anticipate which majority is needed and who can sign what.
Final list of participating supply points
Required
It is the baseline of the file. Everything submitted is built on top of it.
Owners agreement and signed authorisations from each participant
Required
Without an authorisation to act, nothing can be filed on a neighbour's behalf, under article 5 of Act 39/2015.
Design project or technical report, depending on capacity
Required
It sets which technical documents are needed and which price tier the case falls into.
Installation code, if one has already been assigned
Helpful, not blocking
If it already exists, we skip requesting and verifying it.
Agreed allocation coefficients and metering and connection data
Required
It is what gets communicated to the grid operator and what decides what each neighbour sees on their bill.
25 working days
Counted from: The baseline being frozen and every authorisation and technical document being in.
What this turnaround does not cover
Regional Industry office
Registration of the file and, where applicable, a decision or a request.
No date commitment on our side.
Your grid operator
Activation of the associated consumers and application of the allocation coefficients.
No date commitment on our side.
Your electricity retailer
That the split is correctly reflected on each participant's bill.
No date commitment on our side.
We commit to filing a complete application and following it through. The decision date is set by the authority, not by us, so we do not promise it.
The file is registered by the regional Industry office of the Generalitat. The grid operator activates the associated consumers and applies the allocation coefficients, and each neighbour's electricity retailer is the one that finally reflects them on the bill. We file, follow up and check neighbour by neighbour that the split arrives. What we do not do is promise the date or the outcome of a decision we do not sign.
The complete file is submitted to the authority and the allocation coefficients are communicated to the grid operator.
Our own turnarounds for the rest of the services, from the moment the file is complete: feasibility study 14 working days, manager registration 8, adding or removing a participant 4, change of coefficients 8.
These are the situations that stop the work and require a quote before going on. They are stated here, not at the end.
Several supply points associate with one installation and share the energy it produces, under their own rules on proximity and mode. It is not one individual installation multiplied by the number of neighbours.

The study tells you what to take to that meeting; it does not convene it and does not vote.

Being able to say no at an owners meeting with data in front of you is worth exactly as much as being able to say yes.
Yes, in full, if within 90 days you book the permits and engineering for the group from 2,490 €. The window is 90 days because a building needs time to convene a meeting.
We need twelve months of consumption for the supplies that will take part, or their permission to look it up. With a single month's bill the split comes out miscalculated and the estimated saving does not resemble the real one.
Because it is not one individual installation multiplied by the number of neighbours. A participant list has to be frozen, each one's authorisation collected, allocation coefficients agreed and communicated, and then checked to make sure the split reaches every bill.
Real Decreto 244/2019, de 5 de abril, por el que se regulan las condiciones administrativas, técnicas y económicas del autoconsumo de energía eléctrica, art. 3 y art. 4 (modalidades de autoconsumo y autoconsumo colectivo) · read onThe list is frozen in writing at the start. A later change is a change request and is quoted: we do not rebuild a file that was already built on a different list at no charge.
It depends on the tier. The 1,490 € tier is for cases where the base engineering already exists. From 2,490 € it includes the standard engineering for the group. Cases with grid access and connection, an authorised inspection or higher capacity start at 3,900 €.
Our work, up to 25 working days from the moment the baseline is frozen and the authorisations and technical documents are in. How long the regional authority takes to decide and the grid operator to activate each neighbour is not our turnaround and we do not promise it.

Annual management of the group is contracted separately from 390 € a year, and before you sign up for it you will see in writing how many additions, removals and changes it covers.
It can be either: the building decides. We prepare the registration, collect the authorisations and set up the record, whoever is named.
Each associated consumer has to authorise whoever will file on their behalf. Without that authorisation nothing can be filed for them, and that is not our decision.

The master record belongs to the building and is handed over complete.
Yes, and it works out better. The first supply point in the operation is 149 € and each additional supply point within the same operation is 29 €.
Often yes, because the split was calculated with a different participant list. We check it while validating the change and tell you before charging, not afterwards. The recalculation has its own price.
Without their authorisation nothing can be filed on their behalf. That is a legal limit, not a decision of ours.

When the grid operator applies it and when it shows up on their bill does not depend on us and we do not promise it.
Because they are two different jobs. For 249 € we handle a change of split the building has already agreed. For 590 € to 990 € we model your real load curves, compare scenarios and tell you which one saves most, and by how much.
No. The split is agreed by the participants. We work out which scenarios exist, validate that the chosen one holds together, and communicate it in the format the procedure requires.

It is an estimate, not a guarantee: if consumption habits change, the result changes with them.
We communicate it within three working days of the building approving it. When the grid operator applies it and on which bill it appears does not depend on us.
