"Install was very professional and neat. Very easy to deal with, nothing seemed like an issue to them, even though our roof slates are very difficult to work with (break very easily). The lads also fixed slates in areas of our roof away from the PV install."

Frequently asked questions

More questions? Feel free to contact us

How do solar panels work?

Solar panels contain photovoltaic cells that generate electricity from sunlight. An inverter converts DC into AC electricity for home or business use. Modern PV panels operate even in cloud cover, ensuring year-round generation across Ireland.

What is the cost of solar panels in Ireland?

The price of solar panel installation ranges from €7,000 to €13,000 for residential systems, depending on system size and quality.

With SEAI grants reducing installation costs further by up to €1,800, many homeowners only pay between €5,200 and €11,200.

Commercial solar panel systems typically cost €800-€1,000 per kW installed, with available grants of €2,400 up to €162,600.

How efficient are solar panels in Ireland?

Most PV panels achieve 19–22% efficiency. Premium models reach 25%.Ireland’s mild climate supports strong year-round performance due to reduced overheating.

What solar PV grants are available?

The Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) offers grants suitable for the consumption in both homes and businesses:

  • Residential grants: Up to €1,800 towards solar PV installation
  • Commercial grants: up to €162,600 based on system size
  • Solar Path manages the entire grant application process for you and we even wait for the grant payment so you don't have to.

How long do solar panels last?

Modern solar panels have a typical lifespan of 25 to 30 years. Most reputable manufacturers providing 25-year production warranties.

While panels don't stop working after this period, their efficiency gradually decreases at a rate of approximately 0.5% per year.

This means that after 25 years, solar panels typically still maintain about 87.5% of their original output capacity.

Do I need planning permission for solar panels?

Most residential solar installations don't require planning permission in Ireland, as they fall under permitted development rights. Systems covering less than 50% of the roof area are generally exempt.

Commercial installations may require permission depending on size and location. Solar Path can guide you through all planning requirements as part of our professional service.

Can I sell excess electricity back to the grid?

Yes, through the Microgeneration Support Scheme, homeowners and businesses can sell surplus electricity generated by their solar power systems back to the grid.

The Clean Export Guarantee (CEG) provides payments for excess energy, creating an additional revenue stream from your solar investment.

Which type of solar panels should I choose?

For Irish conditions, monocrystalline and PERC (Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell) panels deliver the industry the best performance.

These premium panels offer higher efficiency ratings (up to 25%), greater power capacity per square meter, better low-light performance, and excellent durability.

Solar Path only installs high-quality tier-1 panels with comprehensive manufacturer warranties.
