Solar panels in Cancún and the Riviera Maya

Unlimited energy, infinite possibilities.

Office on Av. Cobá, Cancún. Systems engineered for coastal conditions: reinforced anchoring, corrosion-resistant structure and a hurricane-season protocol.

★★★★★ Serving Cancún, Playa del Carmen and Tulum
01 — What changes on the coast

A system for Cancún is not the same as one for central Mexico

Installing here with the same recipe used inland is a mistake you pay for within three years. Salt air corrosion, humidity and wind change the entire design.

🌊

Salt air corrosion

Anodized aluminum structure and stainless-steel hardware — not ordinary galvanized steel. It costs more upfront, and it's the difference between 25 years and 8.

🌀

Hurricane season

Anchoring calculated per the Wind Design Manual of CFE (Mexico's federal electricity utility) for the Quintana Roo coast, where the regional design wind speed is around 196 km/h (50-year return period) — far above what's required inland. Plus an inspection protocol before and after the season.

🌡

Heat and humidity

Heat reduces panel efficiency. We compensate with mounting clearance that allows airflow beneath the modules and by oversizing the array.

02 — Who it's for

Home, business or rental property

In the Riviera Maya, a good share of our projects aren't primary residences — they're investment properties where the electricity bill eats into the returns.

🏠

Primary residence

Air conditioning in Cancún sends bills soaring, pushing many families onto the high-consumption (DAC) tariff. That's exactly where the system pays for itself fastest.

🏨

Vacation rentals

If you rent on Airbnb, electricity is your second-largest operating cost after cleaning. A solar system makes it predictable and raises the property's value.

🏢

Shops and small businesses

Restaurants, storefronts and small hotels with high daytime consumption: the profile where the solar curve best matches the consumption curve.

03 — Pricing

Price ranges for Cancún

We work with the same ranges as in Querétaro, adjusted for the corrosion-resistant hardware that coastal weather demands.

Home with air conditioning

$50,000 – $70,000 MXN installed, for a bimonthly bill of $2,000 to $6,000 MXN.

Large home or high-consumption (DAC) tariff

$65,000 – $250,000 MXN depending on consumption. The most common case in the hotel zone and beachside residential areas.

Business or vacation rental

Quoted on actual consumption. Send us your bill and we'll give you the number.

Ranges include equipment, corrosion-resistant structure, installation and the CFE interconnection paperwork.

04 — Questions

What people ask in the Riviera Maya

The questions here aren't the same as in central Mexico. These are the ones we hear most.

Can they withstand a hurricane?

The anchoring is calculated for the wind speed set by the coastal-zone standard, which is far higher than inland requirements. We also inspect before and after hurricane season. What we won't do is promise nothing can ever happen — which is why having the system insured matters.

Won't the salt air eat them away?

Salt air corrosion eats cheap hardware, not the right hardware. That's exactly why we use anodized aluminum and stainless steel. If someone quotes you ordinary galvanized structure for Cancún, ask how many years they warranty the structure — not the panel.

Is it worth it if I only use the house a few months a year?

Yes — and sometimes it's even better: what you generate while you're away is credited to your account and consumed when you arrive. It's one of the cases where net metering pays off most.

What if the property is in a condominium?

It depends on the bylaws and whether the rooftop is a common or private area. We check before quoting, so we never sell you something you won't be allowed to install.

Do you serve Playa del Carmen and Tulum?

Yes. Our office is on Av. Cobá, Cancún, and we serve the entire corridor down to Tulum.

How long does installation take?

A standard residential installation takes just a few days of on-site work; start to finish it's usually a matter of a few weeks, and what sets the timeline is the CFE interconnection process.
