Why County Laois is ideal for solar

  • Better solar potential than expected: Modern solar panels perform well even in diffuse light conditions, making Laois's climate more suitable than many homeowners realise.
  • High electricity costs: Irish consumers pay almost 30 per cent more than the European Union average for electricity, meaning the potential for substantial energy bills savings.
  • Generous grant support: The SEAI solar electricity grant provides up to €1,800 for home installations in 2025, with additional support available for battery storage systems.
  • Microgeneration payments: Since the introduction of the Clean Export Guarantee, homeowners can sell excess electricity back to the grid for a credit on their bills.

All the installers we work with are SEAI registered, meaning you won't miss out on grants, and they'll be able to guide you through the process.

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, so they perform well even on overcast days.

Most Irish homes see significant electricity bill reductions with properly sized systems.

How much does a solar panel system cost?

Typical residential systems cost €8,000-€12,000 before grants. The price depends primarily on your system size (a 4kW system costs less than a 6kW system) and your roof 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 typically generate electricity for 30+ years with minimal maintenance.

Do I need planning permission?

Most residential installations are exempt from planning permission. Exceptions exist for protected structures and conservation areas.

Your installer will confirm if permission is needed for your property.

How does the SEAI grant work?

The grant provides up to €1,800 and is typically handled by your installer. It's paid directly to them, reducing your upfront cost. Your installer must be SEAI-registered for you to qualify.
