Solar PV Scheme Applicant Guide contains terms.
Solar PV, also called Photovoltaic, uses the sun's energy to convert daylight into renewable energy. The electricity is then consumed within the home, reducing your need to buy energy from a supplier. When a Solar PV system produces more energy than a home needs, the extra energy can go to your immersion heater. Solar PV is not to be confused with Solar Thermal - while Solar Thermal heats water only, Solar PV gives you free electricity and hot water. Watch our promotional video here for even more information.
Solar Photovoltaic panels (PVs) are a great way to generate renewable, clean energy in your home. They use daylight as a source of free, natural energy.
*An average solar PV system can save over 50% per year on electricity, based on an average consump-tion of a house being 4200kWh/units. 8 x Solar PV panels or 3.2kWp will generate approx. 2700 units per year 2100kWh/units).
SEAI grants benefit homeowners, businesses and communities

Microgenerators are able to provide a portion or all of an individual's energy requirements. The Govern-ment Microgeneration Support Scheme allows microgeneration devices to be registered and surplus electricity can then be sold back into Ireland's electric grid. This scheme allows households to save mon-ey while reducing their carbon footprint.
Solar Share offers you the latest solar PV technology and installation by our partners Solar Share. We en-able you to live a sustainable lifestyle.

Solar experts who carry out your property survey can give you advice on your particular circumstances.
You BER assessor has published a report.
After this, allow between 4 and 6 weeks to pay, plus additional time if you need an inspection.
The government see solar energy as a long-term method of broadening the sustainable energy mix in Ireland so have several incentives in place to help Irish consumers switch to solar energy.
Installing solar PV panels on your roof to produce renewable electricity can be made affordable with this grant.
