Frequently asked questions about solar panels in Ireland
Do solar panels work in Irish weather?
Yes, modern solar panels generate electricity from daylight, not just direct sunlight. This means they perform well even on the overcast days common in Ireland.
How much does a solar panel system cost?
A typical residential system costs between €8,000 and €12,000 before any grants are applied. The final price depends on the system size (a 4kW system costs less than a 6kW system) and your roof's characteristics.
Factors like multiple roof angles, difficult access, or the need for scaffolding can increase installation costs.
How long do solar panels last?
Quality solar panels come with 25-year warranties and are designed to generate electricity for 30 years or more with minimal maintenance.
Do I need planning permission?
Most residential solar panel installations are exempt from planning permission. The main exceptions are for protected structures and designated conservation areas.
Your installer will be able to confirm if permission is needed for your specific property.
How does the SEAI grant work?
The grant provides up to €1,800 towards the cost of your system. To qualify, your installer must be SEAI-registered. The grant is typically handled by your installer and paid directly to them, which reduces your upfront cost.
