Why County Sligo is ideal for solar
- Better solar potential than you think: While Sligo is known for its dramatic landscapes, it also receives more than enough daylight for effective solar energy generation.
- High electricity costs: Irish homeowners pay almost 30 per cent more for electricity than the European Union average. This means the potential for substantial savings on your energy bills is significant when you generate your own power.
- Generous grant support: The SEAI solar electricity grant provides up to €1,800 for home installations in 2025.
- Microgeneration payments: Thanks to the Clean Export Guarantee scheme, you can sell any excess electricity your panels generate back to the national grid for a credit on your 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. They perform well even on overcast days, and most Irish homes see significant electricity bill reductions with a properly sized system.
How much does a solar panel system cost?
A typical residential system costs between €8,000 and €12,000 before grants. The final price depends on the system size and your roof's characteristics. Factors like multiple roof angles, difficult access, or the need for scaffolding can influence the installation cost.
How long do solar panels last?
Quality solar panels come with 25-year warranties and are built 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 protected structures or located in architectural conservation areas.
How does the SEAI grant work?
The grant provides up to €1,800 towards the cost of your system. It is typically handled by your installer, who must be SEAI-registered for you to qualify. The grant is paid directly to them, which reduces your upfront payment.
