All the documentation related to your installation will be sent to you.
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.

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.
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.

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.
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.
