FAQ

What type of grants are available for a residential install?

K
L

The Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) grants support homeowners in installing solar PV systems to generate renewable electricity. The grant value varies based on the system size, capped at €2,100. In addition, the Electric Vehicle Home Charger grant supports residents and homeowners to install an electric vehicle charge point on their property. The scheme provides a grant up to the value of €300 towards the purchase and installation of a home charger unit.

Who is eligible for the SEAI grant?

K
L

Eligibility extends to homeowners and private landlords whose properties were built and occupied before 31st December 2020 and have not previously received solar PV funding at the specified MPRN.

Does Ireland gets enough sun for Solar?

K
L

Certainly YES, Ireland receives sufficient sunlight for solar energy production. Although known for its cloudy weather, Ireland's solar radiation is comparable to several European regions successfully using solar power.
Modern solar panels are designed to work efficiently even on overcast days, capturing diffuse sunlight to generate electricity. Typically, a well-sized solar panel system can cover around 75% - 80% of the electricity usage for an average Irish household, making it a practical and sustainable energy solution.

How long does it take to get returns on my investment?

K
L

The payback period for a PV system can also vary depending on several factors such as the size of the system, the amount of energy consumed by the business, and the cost of electricity in the area. However, with the current cost of electricity and the available SEAI grants, you can expect to recoup your investment within 5-7 years.

How sure can you be of Solar generating the expected RoI?

K
L

The assurance of a solar installation's return on investment (ROI) is underpinned by the predictability of long-term weather patterns and sophisticated analytical methods. Our state-of-the-art software utilises extensive meteorological data and solar irradiance records to offer precise calculations of potential energy output, taking into account the specific orientation and angle of the installation site.
This advanced level of precision in assessing factors such as the local climate and the property's geographic positioning allows for accurate predictions of solar performance.
As a result, the expected ROI from solar power systems is grounded in solid empirical evidence, making it a secure investment option.

Can I finance my PV system?

K
L

Yes, there are a number of financing options available for residential customers who want to install a photovoltaic (PV) system. Some banks offer home improvement loans specifically for energy upgrades, including solar installations. For example, Bank of Ireland offers the Green Home Improvement Loan, which can be used to finance energy-efficient home improvements, such as solar installations. AIB also offers a Green Personal Loan, which can be used to finance a range of green home improvements. Additionally, there are various government incentives and grants available to help offset the cost of installation.

Do I need planning permission to install solar?

K
L

NO, Solar panel installation on domestic properties doesn't require planning permission. As of 7th October 2022, homeowners can install solar panels on their entire roof without size restrictions.
However, planning may be necessary if your home is a protected structure, within a conservation area, or in a solar safeguarding zone near airports or hospitals due to glint and glare concerns.

How long does it take to install a typical solar system?

K
L

On average, a residential PV system can take between one and three days to install, but larger or more complex systems may take longer.
Before installation, our specialist will typically conduct a site assessment to assess any potential issues that may affect the installation timeline.
Additionally, all our Customers will have access to our web portal and/or application to track your installation as a project, so you can stay informed about the progress of your system.

How long solar panels last?

K
L

Solar panels are built to be durable and long-lasting. On average, solar panels have a lifespan of about 25 to 30 years.
However, this doesn't mean they stop producing electricity after this period; it just indicates that energy production might decrease to a level considered less efficient than their original output.
With proper maintenance, panels can continue to operate effectively for many years beyond their expected lifespan.

What are advantages of a battery and do I need one?

K
L

A battery stores surplus solar energy for later use, increasing your home's self-consumption of the electricity generated.
In Ireland, without a battery, a typical solar PV system allows you to use about 65%-70% of the power produced. Adding a battery can boost this to 85%-90%. Batteries are particularly useful if you're not at home during peak solar production hours, as they can store energy generated in the daytime for use in the evening or at night.
It also offers energy independence, ensuring a supply during power cuts and peak tariff times, which can lead to cost savings.
Furthermore, if you are at home, a battery can provide a quick power boost for high-usage activities, ensuring maximum use of your own solar electricity.
