By installing our Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels your home can generate clean, green renewable energy from daylight - a free and natural resource.
As a result, costs are falling and there are more varied options available to Irish solar customers.
In this guide, we’ll bring you through some of the core mid to -long-term benefits of embracing solar energy to dramatically reduce your energy bills while helping to reduce carbon emissions and protect our environment.
Learn how to maximize energy efficiency and save money
Advice on your specific circumstances
All homeowners and private landlords whose homes have been built and occupied prior to 2021 are eli-gible.
Solar energy is seen by the government as a way to broaden Ireland's sustainable energy mix. Therefore, they have put in place several incentives to encourage Irish consumers to switch to solar power.
Charge your battery at night with cheaper electricity
Solar PV (photovoltaic panels), most commonly installed on the roof, convert sunlight to electricity with-out producing any carbon emissions. The electricity can be used for heating water, to power your house or stored in batteries. The Microgeneration Support Scheme allows you to receive 21c/kWh credits for any excess electricity exported.

It is available on the market. It also offers a 10-year guarantee or 10,000 charging cycles.
Add additional batteries if your needs change.
Irish consumers can now switch to solar power with several incentives from the Irish government.

Installing the panels will be done to the highest standard. A tutorial will follow so that you feel comforta-ble with Solar PV.
All homeowners (including private landlords) whose homes were constructed and occupied before the year 2021 are eligible to apply.
between �6,000 and �18,000 Professional installers will assess your property to look at how many solar panels you will need and if your current roof structure can accommodate the solar system. The average cost of solar panel installation in Ireland is between �6,000 and �18,000.
�2,400 The amount you get depends on the system size you have installed, measured by your solar panel's peak power output (in kW / kWp). �2,400 is the maximum grant. Larger installations still get this amount. Other things you get installed (such as batteries and immersion diverters) do not effect the amount of the grant.
Without a solar battery connected to your solar PV system, any excess energy generated would be fed back into the National Grid. Adding a solar battery to your system is an excellent and efficient way to preserve and use renewable energy, helping you maximise the energy you generate for your home. 6 Apr 2023
