Add additional batteries if your needs change.
You can expect to pay around EUR6,500 for one of our PV solar systems. But the solar expert who con-ducts your property assessment will be in a position to give you specific advice based upon your circum-stances.
The amount of electricity that you need for your home or business.
(Meeting the eligibility requirements).
Allow 4 to 6 weeks after that for payment. If an inspection is necessary, this time will be extended.
The government views solar energy as an important way to diversify Ireland's energy mix. The govern-ment has put into place a variety of incentives in order to encourage Irish consumers switch to solar power.
A thin film panel may last for over ten years, which is usually less than the average crystalline panel. However, with consistent technological advances improving the durability of thin films, they could soon reach a twenty-year lifespan.
A good quality broadband connection is necessary to monitor how much power your home is using. Once installed the homeowner can review both the live and cumulative energy usage in the home on the free energy app from their smartphone.

Solar panels cost depends on how many solar panels you need.
The payment of your application will only be processed after all documents have been uploaded, and the BER certification has been completed and published by you BER assessor.
We have calculated the savings based on estimated installation costs, solar generation from a south-facing roof and a certain level of self-consumption and export. Savings are based on Bord Gáis Energy’s standard unit rate for Urban 24-hour electricity at 48.19c/kWh (incl. VAT) and a microgeneration export rate of 18.5c/kWh from your electricity supplier.
Heat pumps can be an energy-efficient alternative to home heating
The Government Microgeneration Support Scheme is now available so that those with a registered microgeneration device can sell any excess electricity back to Ireland's electricity grid. This will help households reduce their carbon footprint and save money.
Solar energy systems can generate electricity in any climate. One of the disadvantages of solar energy is that it's subject to temporary weather disruption. Cloudy days reduce the amount of electricity you produce.
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
