SEAI can provide grants to cover costs.
Home heating. This could reduce your energy costs and save you money.
SEAI grants can help individuals, small businesses, large industries, and communities reduce their ener-gy bills and greenhouse gas emissions.

Investing in solar panels can be a smart choice for households and businesses looking to reduce their electricity costs and embrace renewable energy.The above savings are a result of customers reducing the amount of electricity they need to purchase from their electricity supplier/. Please note that you will still pay the same amount on your electricity bill for standing charges and for the Public Service Obliga-tion, but you will reduce the unit rate amount (the amount of electricity consumed).
This form gives us the information we need to set up a network on your behalf. Please fill out this form to provide us with the necessary information.
SEAI will electronically receive the documentation relating to your installation.
SEAI grants are currently available up to EUR2,400. Recently, the government decided to eliminate VAT from solar panels. It takes on average less than 5 year to pay back your investment in PV panels.
Payment can take up to six weeks. Inspect the property before paying.

Project (subject to meeting eligibility requirements).
The amount of energy you need to power your home, business or other building will determine how much you spend on solar panels.
Heat pumps are a more efficient alternative to conventional heating.
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.

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.
The average Solar PV system would have 10 panels with a hot water diverter. Its average cost is EUR7,975 before grant. However, an accurate quote will depend on the site survey. This 10 panel (4.1kWp system) would cost EUR5,575. Solar Share has committed to maintain the pricing of all installs that have deposits paid by 1st May, 2023. You can save approximately EUR 1,190 a year once installed (based on solar electric-ity self consumption of 2,280kWh and exporting 1,220kWh to grid). Your investment will pay off in ap-proximately five years at the current electricity rates of 41c/kWh.
Solar PV is installed on the roof of most solar share microgenerators. Your Solar PV installer will have submitted an NC6 to ESB Networks on your behalf. This form gives us the information needed to set up your account.
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.
