Why County Leitrim is ideal for solar
- Effective in all weather: Solar panels are powered by daylight, not direct sunlight, making them highly effective even on overcast days in Co. Leitrim.
- High electricity costs: Irish consumers pay almost 30 per cent more than the European Union average for electricity, meaning the potential for substantial energy bill savings.
- Generous grant support: The SEAI solar electricity grant currently provides up to €1,800 for home installations.
- Microgeneration payments: Since the introduction of the Clean Export Guarantee, homeowners can sell any excess electricity they generate back to the grid for a credit on their bills.

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 between €8,000 and €12,000 before grants. The final price depends on your system size and your roof's characteristics — factors like multiple 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 performance warranties and are expected to generate electricity for 30 years or more with minimal maintenance. They are a long-term investment that provides decades of savings.
Do I need planning permission?
Most residential solar panel installations are exempt from planning permission. The main exceptions are for protected structures and homes within architectural conservation areas. Your installer will confirm if permission is needed for your specific property.
How does the SEAI grant work?
The grant provides up to €1,800 and is handled by your installer. It is paid directly to them, which reduces your upfront cost. To qualify, your chosen installer must be registered with the SEAI.
