Nerja town hall has launched the tender process for the installation of two photovoltaic panels on the town's Local Police station, located on Avenida de Pescia. The project forms part of the strategy for energy transition and efficient use of public resources.

The official announcement, published on the Public Sector Procurement Platform, sets the base budget at 115,570 euros (excluding VAT) and established 19 March as the deadline for submitting bids. The technical documents in the tender specifications, consulted by SUR, describe the planned structures as pergola-style canopies with integrated solar panels, designed not only to generate renewable energy but also to provide shade and improve parking conditions for police vehicles.

Each canopy will be equipped with high-efficiency polycrystalline or monocrystalline photovoltaic modules, with an estimated total power output of between 10 and 15 kW per unit, depending on the technical proposal of the successful bidder and the available surface area in each parking zone.
