Solar PV (also called Photovoltaic) uses sunlight to produce renewable energy. This electricity can be used in the home and reduces your dependence on energy suppliers. Solar PV systems can produce more energy than is needed by a household. The excess energy can be used to power your immersion heater. Solar PV should not be confused with Solar Thermal. Solar Thermal only heats the water, while Solar PV provides free electricity and hot running water. Click here to watch our promotional video for more information.
By installing our Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels your home can generate clean, green renewable energy from daylight - a free and natural resource.

area. This is decided during the site inspection. Installation is usually carried out
Solar Battery System can increase your savings with Solar PV. It also allows you to store the energy gen-erated for later use. You can program batteries to charge at cheaper rates during the night if you're on a Home Electric+ smart meter time-of use plan.
The Irish Government sees solar energy as an important long-term way of expanding the mix of sustain-able energy in Ireland. They have therefore put in place a number incentives to assist Irish consumers in switching to solar.

SEAI grants are helping homeowners, business owners, communities, and large industries reduce their energy costs and greenhouse emissions. Read more.
More effective and efficient when compared to thin films and polycrystalline panels. Monocrystalline (MC) modules are made of a single silicon crystal. Being the most efficient and highest-quality panels, they’re also the most expensive.
Solar PV is also known as Photovoltaic. It uses the sun’s energy to transform daylight into renewable electricity. You can then use the electricity in your home to reduce the need for energy. Solar PV systems that produce more electricity than the home requires can feed it to an immersion heater. Solar PV and Solar Thermal are not the same thing. Solar Thermal is a system that only heats water. Solar PV, on the other hand, provides you with free electricity as well as hot water. For more information, watch our pro-motional videos.
Once fitted, the solar panels on your roof are connected to an inverter and in some cases a battery.
The sun’s power can also be harnessed as thermal energy via the use of concentrators and reflectors. En-ergy harnessed through solar panels can then be used to provide electricity for homes, farms and busi-nesses of all sizes nationwide.
The minimum price for our solar PV system is EUR6,500. However, the solar expert performing your property inspection will be able give you advice based on the specifics of your situation.

We are working with schools and communities in Ireland to help change the way they think about ener-gy.
Microgenerators can provide all or part of the energy needs of a home or business. Government Micro-generation Support Scheme allows those who have a microgeneration device registered to sell excess electricity back into Ireland's electrical grid. This scheme will allow households to reduce their carbon footprint while saving money.
