SEAI will receive electronic copies.
SEAI grants are currently available up to EUR2,400. Recently, the government decided to eliminate VAT from solar panels. It takes on average less than 5 year to pay back your investment in PV panels.
The government sees solar energy as a means to expand Ireland's mix of sustainable energy. They have therefore put in place a number of incentives to encourage Irish customers to switch to solar energy.

If you are considering installing a solar PV with us, the SEAI grant for solar electricity is the most im-portant.
Solar PV panels (photovoltaic), which are most often installed on roofs, convert sunlight into electricity, without emitting carbon dioxide. You can use this to heat water, power your home or store it in a battery. You can receive credit of 21c/kWh for any surplus electricity that you export through the Microgeneration Support Scheme.
Payment can take up to six weeks. Inspect the property before paying.
The amount of energy you need to power your home, business or other building will determine how much you spend on solar panels.
We have calculated the savings based on estimated installation costs, solar generation from a south-facing roof and a certain level of self-consumption and export. Savings are based on Bord Gáis Energy’s standard unit rate for Urban 24-hour electricity at 48.19c/kWh (incl. VAT) and a microgeneration export rate of 18.5c/kWh from your electricity supplier.
Allow 4 to 6 weeks after that for payment. If an inspection is necessary, this time will be extended.
The solar expert who inspects your property will be in a position to give you a number of useful tips.
A thin film panel may last for over ten years, which is usually less than the average crystalline panel. However, with consistent technological advances improving the durability of thin films, they could soon reach a twenty-year lifespan.

The Government Microgeneration Support Scheme is now available so that those with a registered microgeneration device can sell any excess electricity back to Ireland's electricity grid. This will help households reduce their carbon footprint and save money.
Next, a 2kW solar system can support a one or two-bedroom house. On the other hand, a 3kW to 3.5kW solar system can be enough for a house with three bedrooms. Lastly, a 4kW to 5kW solar system can support a four to five-bedroom house. 18 Apr 2023
