The Barcelonès is the most densely populated county in Catalonia and one of the main cores of electrical consumption. In cities like Barcelona, L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, Badalona, Santa Coloma de Gramenet, or Sant Adrià de Besòs, joining the photovoltaic self-consumption wave might seem complicated. However, their city councils have opted for highly attractive tax reward strategies to facilitate the transition.
The IBI and ICIO as the flagships of savings
While detached houses and rooftops are abundant in less populated areas, major cities focus on promoting communal installations in buildings or individual setups on terraces and industrial bays. Key municipalities like Barcelona offer significant IBI bonuses, which can reach up to 50% for periods of up to 3 years. This discount allows many households to recover a large part of the installation cost in the medium term.
On the other hand, the installation itself requires settling the Tax on Constructions, Installations, and Works (ICIO). If you live in Badalona or L'Hospitalet and entrust us with your solar project, we will take care of preparing everything necessary so you can request a reduction of up to 95% on this tax.
