So, the DC electricity generated by the solar panels needs to be converted into AC to make it usable. The conversion of DC to AC power is carried out by a device known as an inverter. Once electricity has been generated by the solar panels, it flows via the inverters and is converted into AC power. After conversion, electricity flows to either electric loads or power meters which measure the amount of power generated, depending on the type of inverter fitted.
CSP technologies produce electricity by focusing sunlight to produce heat and drive an engine connect-ed to a generator. They’re usually found in countries with year-round sunshine, so are less common in Ireland.Given the constraints of CSP, solar PV panels are more popular in terms of demand, affordability and reliability for Irish homeowners and businesses.

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.
SEAI will receive electronic copies of all documentation related to the installation.
