What documents do I need to sign up for electricity and gas with Repsol in Spain?

When requesting a new electricity connection or signing up for electricity and gas with Repsol, two different companies may be involved in the process: the distributor and the supplier. 

Understanding the role of each one will help you know who is responsible for the technical work, who manages your contract and what information you need to provide. 

Distributor 

The distributor is responsible for carrying out the technical work required to install an electricity meter, which measures your monthly consumption. 

At this point, it is important to know whether the property is a new build and needs its first electricity installation, or whether it is a home where the previous occupant cancelled an existing contract. 

In the latter case, whenever possible, it is better to reach an agreement with the previous electricity contract holder so they do not cancel the supply and you simply request a change of account holder. This can help you save a considerable amount of money. 

Supplier 

Once the necessary installations and connections have been completed, the relationship with the energy supplier begins. In this case, that would be Repsol. 

Energy suppliers are the companies responsible for handling all the administrative procedures so you can have electricity supply at home. 

Online, you can find many electricity comparison tools that can help you choose the electricity supplier offering the best advantages and a competitive price for setting up electricity. 

You can also receive information about the different tariffs available, which may help you achieve greater savings and better conditions. 

In general, competition between electricity suppliers allows you to access benefits such as: 

• A tariff with no minimum contract period. 
• Maintenance services. 
• The possibility to manage your electricity contract by phone or online.
