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.
Heat pumps are an alternative to traditional heating systems that is more energy efficient.
Yes, additional battery modules can be simply installed into your Sonnen battery should your require-ments change.Yes, the Sonnen battery relies on an internet connection to provide the system monitor-ing. Broadband is necessary to remotely identify and fix system faults online, as well as provide regular, free software updates to ensure that the functionality of the system is up-to-date. Internet connection is part of the warranty conditions.
The Sonnen battery requires an internet connection
The home must have been built prior to 2011.
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.
We are in a unique position to provide you with specific advice, based on your particular circumstances.

SEAI offers grants to help with the cost of your project.
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.
This grant will make electricity more affordable.

A typical Solar PV installation would consist of 10 panels, a hot-water diverter and an average price of EUR7.975 (before grant). However, the exact quote is dependent on a site survey. After grant of EUR2,400, the price for this 10 panel system (4.1kWp), would be EUR5,575. Solar Share will maintain pric-ing for all installations with deposits paid after 1st may 2023. Installed, you could save up to EUR 1,190 per year (based upon 2,280kWh solar electricity that is self-consumed and 1,220kWh exported to the grid). With the current electricity rate of 41c/kWh compared to microgen's 21c/kWh you can expect a return on investment of approximately 5 years.
Before you invest in solar PV, familiarise yourself with the contents of the Solar PV Scheme Application Guide which includes the Terms and Conditions of the scheme.
You can learn how to maximise energy efficiency and save energy in your home by using the right appli-ances and products.
around �10,000 - �12,000 The average cost of a 5kW photovoltaic system in Ireland is around �10,000 - �12,000. This includes the cost of the solar panels, equipment, and installation. However, it's important to note that this is just a rough estimate, and the final price will depend on the specific factors mentioned above. 29 Jan 2023
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
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.
