Torrevieja is the largest city in Spain with no railway station of any kind, so almost every journey here starts with a car key. We fit certified chargers built for salt-laden coastal air in bungalows, villas and communal garages, with the electrical certificate and regional registration handled for you.
We have your installation details. You will get a guide price today and a fixed quote after the site survey. We will be in touch within 24 hours.
01Vega Baja · Costa Blanca South
A city of 120-plus nationalities, of second homes lived in for months rather than weeks, and of daily journeys that can only be made by road.
Torrevieja counts 98,533 inhabitants in the 2025 official figures, yet the municipal register has already passed 113,000 and keeps climbing faster than anywhere else in the province. Around 57 % of residents were born outside Spain, spread across more than 120 nationalities: the Ukrainian community is the largest, followed by Russian, Colombian and British neighbours. Plenty of them arrive from countries where an electric car is unremarkable, and one of their first practical questions is a straightforward one — where does it charge overnight?
The answer carries more weight here than in most towns, because Torrevieja is the biggest Spanish city with no railway station at all. There is no commuter line to walk to and no platform to fall back on: the N-332, the CV-95 and the AP-7 carry everything, from the weekly shop to the airport run. When the car is the only realistic way to move, leaving your charging to whichever public post happens to be free is a poor plan. A point on your own wall turns every night into a full battery.
The housing helps. As the capital of the Spanish second home, Torrevieja is built from bungalows and townhouses with their own drive or a communal surface car park — La Mata, Los Balcones, El Chaparral, La Torreta, and Ciudad Quesada just over the boundary. These are forgiving installations: short cable runs, a wall that belongs to you, often no committee to notify. That matters most in summer, when the resident population multiplies and the public chargers fill up precisely in the weeks owners are here.
Then there is the salt. The city grew up on the trade, its lagoons in the natural park run pink and green, and the habaneras still fill the auditorium every summer — but the same salt-laden air that defines the place is hard on exposed metal. A charger mounted on an open carport in Torrevieja is not doing the same job as one in a sheltered basement inland, so we specify corrosion-resistant enclosures, stainless fixings and high IP and IK ratings wherever the unit will live outdoors.
Every installation is carried out to the Spanish wiring regulations (REBT) and instruction ITC-BT-52, signed off with its electrical installation certificate — the boletín, or CIE — and registered with the industry authority of the Generalitat Valenciana; the paperwork with i-DE, the distributor for this area, is ours to deal with. And because a good share of owners here spend part of the year elsewhere, we set the charger up on your phone: you can schedule, lock and check a session from Torrevieja, Dublin, Berlin or Kyiv.
This page is about Torrevieja alone; behind it sits a company doing EV charger installation across the province of Alicante, from the Vega Baja up to the northern Costa Blanca.
i-DE runs the distribution network across Torrevieja. If your job needs a higher contracted power or a new supply for a garage, we prepare and submit that request alongside the rest of the file.
Between the sea and the salt-flats, the air is humid and salty year round. Enclosures, fixings and cable glands are chosen accordingly, which matters most on open carports, boundary walls and street-facing façades.

Spain's income-tax deduction gives back 15 % of the work (maximum base 4,000 €, so up to 600 €) if it finishes before 31/12/2026 and is paid traceably. It sits inside the resident IRPF return, so only Spanish tax residents can claim it.
02Guide prices
The ranges below cover the great majority of jobs in Torrevieja, from a bungalow drive in La Mata to a basement space behind the Paseo. What moves the final figure is almost always the same thing: the metres of cable between your consumer unit and the parking space. We put that in writing before any work begins.
The classic Torrevieja job: a bungalow, townhouse or detached villa with its own drive or carport in La Mata, El Chaparral, Los Balcones or La Torreta. Short cable run, outdoor-rated unit and a scheduled overnight charge.
790 – 1,400 €turnkey, certificate includedA private space in a residential block near the port, the Paseo or the Habaneras area. We branch off your own meter, run the containment through common areas and give the community the written notice the law asks for.
1,200 – 2,400 €depends on the run to your meterHotels, restaurants, agencies and holiday rentals in Torrevieja whose guests arrive from across Europe expecting to plug in where they sleep. Several points, user control and a record of every session.
from 1,500 €per charging pointIf your Torrevieja property already came with the cabling in place, or an older unit needs replacing with a connected one, we supply and mount the certified charger and set up its app, nothing more.

03Typical jobs
Nearly every charger we fit in Torrevieja falls into one of four situations, and all four end the same way: a full battery each morning, on your own space.
The most common job in the town by some distance. The unit goes near the consumer unit or on the wall closest to where you park, sized so the car takes what it needs without tripping the supply. Outdoors it gets a corrosion-resistant enclosure and a weather-rated cable entry, because a carport a few streets from the sea is an exposed place for electrical kit.
You do not need the community's permission. Article 17.5 of the Horizontal Property Act only requires written notice to the president or administrator — no meeting, no vote. The supply comes off your own meter, so your neighbours pay nothing and the electricity is billed to you. We survey the route first so the containment is tidy and the community knows exactly what will appear on the ceiling.
Torrevieja is full of properties that are lived in for months rather than all twelve. We leave the charger connected and visible from your phone, so you can lock it while the house is empty, unlock it the day before you fly in, and see what was charged and when. Family or guests can be given access without you handing over anything physical.
A restaurant on the front, a small hotel, an estate agency or a villa let by the week: for an international clientele, a charging point is now part of the offer rather than a perk. We fit multi-point installations with user identification and consumption records, so charging can be included in the rate or billed on separately.
Is your space in a shared garage? The law is on your side: written notice is enough — no AGM, no vote.
04Certified equipment
We are not tied to any manufacturer, so the recommendation follows the property. In Torrevieja two things decide it more often than anything else: whether the unit will live outdoors in salt-laden air, and whether you need to see and control it from another country.
V2C is a Valencian manufacturer: the Trydan ships with its own app, dynamic load management and solar surplus mode built in, and spares or support sit in the same region. Our default choice for homes.
The Pulsar fits on any wall, is run entirely from your phone and has years of installations across Europe behind it. It sits as comfortably in a townhouse as in a basement parking space.
When the job calls for three-phase, access control or charging for several cars, we turn to the rest of the certified manufacturers. The recommendation comes from your installation, not from a commission. See the equipment.
Every unit we fit is certified, connected and set up on your phone before we leave. The full range, with power ratings and what each one suits, is on the main Costa Blanca page.
05Sunshine and solar
This corner of the coast collects roughly 3,000 hours of sunshine a year, among the highest figures in mainland Europe. If you already have panels on the roof — and a great many Torrevieja properties do — a charger with surplus mode will divert what the house is not using into the car instead of exporting it for a few cents.
The logic is simple. The charger reads what the meter is sending back to the grid and lifts the car's charging current to match it, second by second, dropping again when a cloud passes or the air conditioning kicks in. Nothing is drawn from the grid unless you tell it to. For a second home that sits in the sun all week, it is close to free mileage.
For properties without panels, the same app does the other half of the job: a charging window set for the cheap overnight hours, so the car fills between midnight and the early morning while the tariff is at its lowest. Both approaches can run together — solar during the day, the off-peak window as a fallback.
If you are considering panels and a charger at the same time, tell us at the survey. Sizing the two together avoids the usual mistake of a charger that cannot make use of the surplus once the panels are up.

06Coverage
We cover the whole municipality and the urbanisations that spill over its edges, which in practice means most of the southern Costa Blanca.
Flats and residential blocks near the marina, the Habaneras area and the seafront, where the parking space is almost always in a basement. These jobs are about the route from your meter to the space and about leaving the common areas looking untouched.
The stretch towards the lagoon and the beach at La Mata, with its low-rise streets, semi-detached houses and open carports. Exposed positions close to the water, so this is where the choice of enclosure and fixings really earns its keep.
Bungalow and townhouse urbanisations inland of the N-332, usually with a private drive or a shared surface car park. Straightforward installations, frequently finished within a single morning once the survey is done.
Just beyond the municipal boundary but part of the same daily life, we work through the villa developments and urbanisations around Torrevieja on the same terms: same survey, same certificate, same registration.
We cover every corner of the province of Alicante. Other towns with a page of their own: Elche · Orihuela · Benidorm · Alcoy · San Vicente del Raspeig · Elda · Dénia · Santa Pola · Villajoyosa.
No. Article 17.5 of the Horizontal Property Act lets any owner install a charging point on their own space after simply notifying the president or administrator in writing. There is no meeting and no vote, and neighbours cannot block it. The supply comes off your own meter, so the community pays nothing towards the electricity.
Unfortunately not. The 15 % relief is a deduction inside the Spanish resident income-tax return (IRPF), so it only helps people who file that return. Owners who pay the annual non-resident tax have no equivalent relief, and residents of the UK cannot use the EU/EEA route either. It does not matter whether the property is your main home — a holiday villa qualifies — but your tax residency does.
For a house, bungalow or villa with its own parking, expect 790 to 1,400 € turnkey. A space in a communal garage runs from 1,200 to 2,400 € depending on the distance to your meter, and business installations start at around 1,500 € per point. If the cabling already exists, supplying and mounting the charger alone is 400 to 1,400 €. The exact figure comes out of the free survey and is fixed in writing.
It will attack the wrong equipment, which is why the specification changes for outdoor positions here. We use corrosion-resistant enclosures, appropriate fixings and high IP and IK ratings for units on carports, boundary walls and façades. Indoors, in a basement garage, the requirement is far less demanding and the choice of unit opens up.
Yes, provided someone can give us access — a neighbour, a keyholder, your administrator or a property manager. We agree the position and the route from photos and the survey, send you the quote and the paperwork by email, and configure the charger on your phone account so it is ready and under your control before you next arrive.
Often not. Modern chargers include dynamic load management: they measure what the house is drawing and adjust the car's current so the supply never trips. On a small contracted power with a heat pump and an oven running, that can mean slower charging at peak moments, which is rarely a problem overnight. If more power genuinely makes sense, we handle the application to i-DE.
A house or bungalow with a short cable run is usually a single morning's work. A communal garage takes longer, mostly because of the containment run between your meter and the space, and typically means one day on site. The survey beforehand is free and is what lets us tell you which of the two your job is.
It tends to matter more, not less. The resident population multiplies in the warm months, so the public points are at their most congested during precisely the weeks that second-home owners are here. A charger on your own space removes that from the holiday altogether: you plug in when you park and think about it no further.
The electrical installation certificate (boletín/CIE) for the work, the registration with the industry authority of the Generalitat Valenciana, the equipment documentation and warranty, and an invoice suitable for the tax deduction. Pay by card or transfer rather than cash: cash payments disqualify the claim, and a traceable payment is also what proves the work to a future buyer.
