The higher the price of energy in Spain, the more work is done to achieve it by reducing costs. And this is also being achieved in the world of football: young players with plenty of energy to face the great challenges of the season, who offer extraordinary performance and whose purchase price was quite low.
In LaLiga we have several cases, but the one with four players stands out above all: Gavi and Pedro, in Barcelona; and Fede Valverde and camavingaat Real Madrid.
These footballers are the mirror in which to look when talking about providing energy in abundance at a low price. Something that transferred to the world of electrical energy could be done with solar panels whose installation is done in just a couple of days and, from there, the panels begin to produce that energy immediately, which means that you start saving on your electricity bill from minute one. It is an investment that is amortized in the first years with the same energy production (5 years or less) and then everything will be benefits. Besides, you can calculate here your savings and the plates you need on your roof in the easiest and fastest way thanks to Skullcap.
Two clear examples are Fede Valverde and camavinga at Real Madrid. The signing of the Uruguayan took place in 2015 in exchange for only €5M and has become the lung of Ancelotti’s team. His physical display every game, his speed and his goals (he has already surpassed ten this season) makes him a fundamental piece of the whites. Some say he never tires…
For his part, the Frenchman landed in Madrid for €31M, an amount much lower than how he was quoted in the market: he was 18 years old and came from being the sensation of Ligue1. It was a master move by Florentino Pérez in 2021. After a year of adaptation, he has become one of the footballers who brings the most energy to the team: he has speed, an enviable physique, overflows with the controlled ball and adapts to any system, both in the middle of the field as a left back.
Precisely, speaking of systems, there are the self-sufficient ones that are increasingly common in every home to avoid depending on external companies and fossil fuels: we refer to the air conditioning by aerothermythe electric car chargers or battery storage. With all this, in addition, you not only save money but also contribute to a more sustainable world and the fight against climate change.
For their part, in the other big club in LaLiga they also have players who waste energy and their price was minimal based on the performance they are showing: we are talking about Pedri and Gavi. The canary signed for just over €20M and he is already one of the banners in the improvement of Xavi’s team. For his part, Gavi signed for the Catalan team for an insignificant amount to be part of the club’s lower categories. Both are the engine of this new Barça.
Also, they have become a football reference in Spain. The national team has begun to take advantage of the good performance of the two footballers, where they are already fixed in the calls. And increasingly recognized worldwide.
Something that they share with the hours of sunshine that our country enjoys, a reference for anyone who mentions Spain. And it is that being one of the sunniest areas in Europe allows us to be able to convert this characteristic into energy many more hours than the rest of European countries, although we are still behind Germany or the Netherlands in the presence of photovoltaic installations. Of course, it has increased considerably in the last three years, thanks, among other factors, to the end of the famous ‘sun tax’ in 2018, which made it difficult to develop these facilities and made them much more expensive.
One more advantage of solar panels is to use self-generated energy instead of paying for electricity at the most expensive time of the day, after the the new light tariff 2.0 TD affects a large part of households from June 2021. This rate divides the price of electricity into three periods (peak, flat and valley), with the most expensive time slots when there is usually more activity at home: from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.
The aid that different public institutions offer us also helps to decide to install solar panels. Next Generation European Funds or IBI bonuses of up to 50% are some of these subsidies, although depending on each Community there are different formulas to be able to undertake this investment more comfortably. Here you can find the grant that best suits you.
It is time to save on energy and do it with personalized companies, such as Skullcap, which offers a quality service focused on the consumer. It does so by working independently and away from the influences of the country’s large electricity marketers and distributors.
you can request budget or calculate it yourself in the solar calculator, something that will be very simple for you by following the steps shown in the following tutorial.
