Solar PV Scheme Applications Guide Terms and Conditions
Once all the documentation is uploaded and your BER cert has been published, you can submit a pay-ment request.
The Sonnen battery requires an internet connection
The original capacity of the battery will not fall below 70% after 10,000 recharge cycles.
When your system is connected to the national grid and you generate more electricity than you require, the extra energy is sent back to the grid. If you’re signed up to our Microgen Export plan you’ll be paid for this in the form of credit on your bill.
The free Solis app and web portal provide an easy-to-use interface giving you the ability to monitor and manage your energy usage and generation 24/7. You can view current and historic data as well as see a forecast of expected solar generation and consumption for the next three days.The Sonnen app is availa-ble to download in iOS or Android stores – just search for “Sonnen”. There is a demo feature on the app which will enable you to explore the functionality of the system.
Heat pumps are an alternative to traditional heating systems that is more energy efficient.
We are working with schools and communities in Ireland to help change the way they think about ener-gy.

How much electricity do you need at home or in your office?
Export excess solar energy to the grid using our
microgenerators. You will find that your Solar PV installer has submitted an NC6 form to ESB.
How to maximize energy efficiency in your home appliances and products.
Once you've completed the BER assessment, your BER assessor will issue a BER certificate.
You will be able to receive specific advice depending on your situation.

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.
Our solar installers will produce a report for your home using bespoke software that uses your location to determine the potential output of your system. Determining factors include, location, system size and roof orientation; south-facing is best but east-west orientation also works very well.
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 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.
Matt black panels are also very popular in Ireland with both customers and city planners due to their vis-ually more attractive profile.
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
While solar panels do generate energy during cloudy and rainy days, they may not be enough to meet your home's energy requirements. Of course, any power deficit can be comfortably met with battery-stored energy or from the excess energy sent to the energy grid.
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.
