SEAI Grants help businesses, homeowners, communities and large industry reduce their energy con-sumption and greenhouse gases.
Consider your microgenerational output for that period.
All homeowners who have built homes and private landlords
Meeting your energy needs with your own installed solar energy system will cut your energy bills. The amount saved by the system depends on its size and the energy demands of your home; the current recommendation from the SEAI is that a solar system should be sized to cover a maximum of 70% of annual electricity usage.
At Solar Share we’re imagining a better way by helping our customers make better energy choices to protect our planet and those we care about. Learn more about sustainable living through our compre-hensive sustainability guides.

Add a Solar Battery System to increase savings from Solar PV and to store generated energy for later use. Batteries can be programmed to charge at a cheaper night rate if you are on a Home Electric+ Smart Meter time-of-use plan.
Thermal energy has various everyday uses like heating your home during cold weather or heating water with solar energy instead of traditional gas boiler and immersion systems. Other popular applications of solar energy include things like powering security and lighting systems, electrifying fences, and aerating garden ponds.
We engage with schools, communities and individuals across Ireland in order to influence the way that your community views energy.
You can influence how your community views energy.
Solar Share offers a rate per kWh of 21c. This payment is estimated to range from EUR50-EUR300 annu-ally, depending on your microgeneration system's size and type (a typical installation with 10 panels would cost EUR150).
SEAI grants are helping homeowners, business owners, communities, and large industries reduce their energy costs and greenhouse emissions. Read more.
The Government recently cut the rate of VAT on the supply and installation of solar panels from 13.50% to 0%. We welcome this decision and will pass on the full discount to all our customers as well as retaining all our highly competitive prices for supply and installation. Another step on Ireland’s journey to cleaner, cheaper, renewable energy.
Thin film solar panels are produced via the spraying of a thin layer of semiconductor material over an-other surface made of either glass, plastic, or metal. They are incredibly thin (around 20 times thinner than traditional c-Si semiconductor wafers) making them flexible and lightweight.
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.
Use the right products and appliances to make your home more energy efficient.
*A solar PV system on average can save you over 50% on your electricity costs per year. This is based on a typical household consumption of 4200kWh/units. The approximate output of 8 Solar PV panels, or 3.2kWp is approximately. The solar PV panels can generate 2700 units per annum (2100kWh/units).
How Much Do Solar Panels Cost per kW System? System Size Estimated Costs Annual Savings on Electricity Bill 3kW panel system �5,000 � �6,000 �850 4kW panel system �6,000 � �8,000 �980 5kW panel system �8,000 � �9,000 �1,460 6kW panel system �9,000 � �11,000 �1,460+
Introduction. The Solar Electricity Grant provides a once-off grant towards the purchase and installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels for your home. It is administered by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI). 24 Jul 2023
Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels are generally installed on a roof and use the energy from the sun to power any electrical appliance in your home, including electric radiators. 17 Jan 2023
