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.
How much does a solar panel system cost?
Typical residential systems cost between €8,000 and €12,000 before grants. The final price depends primarily on your system size 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 performance warranties and are expected 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 properties that are listed as protected structures or are located in architectural 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.
The process is typically handled by your installer and the grant is paid directly to them, which reduces your upfront cost. To qualify, your chosen installer must be SEAI-registered.
