We’ll give you the documentation related to your installation and submit copies to SEAI electronically.

Applications for payment can only be processed once all documentation has been uploaded and the BER cert is complete and published by your BER assessor.

After that is done, please allow 4 to 6 weeks for payment, with additional time if an inspection is re-quired.The cost of solar panels and the respective solar energy system you opt for is dependent on the amount of power you need for your home or business.

What can ruin solar panels

Do solar panels have to be connected to the grid

Around €6,500 is the minimum you can expect to pay for one of our solar PV systems but the solar ex-pert who performs your property survey will be able to advise based on your specific circumstances.

There are grants available through the SEAI to help offset the cost (subject to meeting eligibility re-quirements).

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.

    Should I turn off solar panels in winter

    Solar Share and our partners Solar Share provide you with innovative solar PV panels, as well as expert installation. You can live a more sustainable life.

    Solar PV panels (photovoltaic), which are most often installed on roofs, convert sunlight into electricity, without emitting carbon dioxide. You can use this to heat water, power your home or store it in a battery. You can receive credit of 21c/kWh for any surplus electricity that you export through the Microgeneration Support Scheme.

    SEAI grants of up to EUR 2,400 are available right now. Recent government decisions to eliminate VAT on solar panel supply and installation have also lowered costs. In average, it takes your PV panel invest-ment less than five years to pay off.

    Recently, the Government cut the VAT rate on solar panels for supply and installation from 13.50% to 0%. We are pleased with this decision, and we will pass the full discount on to our customers. Our highly competitive supply and installation prices will remain unchanged. Ireland has taken another step in its journey towards cleaner, cheaper renewable energy.

    This is based on the estimated costs of installation, self consumption and annual solar production from a south-facing roof in Dublin City. Savings based on an average electricity rate (41c/kWh) and a microgen-eration rate (21c/kWh) that is exported. All prices are calculated at 0% starting 1st of May 2023.

    *A solar PV system on average can save you over 50% on your electricity costs per year. Solar Power Purchase Agreement 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 many solar panels does it take to power a house in Ireland?

    Solar Battery Systems can be added to Solar PV systems to maximize savings and store energy for future use. If you have a Home Electric+ time-of-use Smart Meter plan, batteries can be programmed at a lower night rate.

    Solar Sjhare provides batteries manufactured by Sonnen GmbH in Germany. Each battery is an integrat-ed energy storage system that allows users to manage and control energy.

    Battery storage systems can be installed with your Solar PV system or added to an already existing Solar PV system. Our team can help you decide if it is worth the extra cost or not.

    How many solar panels does it take to power a house in Ireland?

    The best orientation for solar panels in Ireland is south-facing to maximize sunlight exposure throughout the day.

    Yes, under the Microgeneration Support Scheme, you can sell excess electricity back to the grid and receive compensation.

    The cost varies depending on the system size and type, but the average cost ranges from €4,000 to €10,000 before grants and incentives.
