The dust has settled on another fantastic year at the National Ploughing Championships, and what a special one it was for us at Alternative Energy Ireland (AEI). Not only did we get the chance to showcase the benefits of solar PV, but this year the event was held right here in Tullamore, our hometown. That meant plenty of familiar faces stopping by our stand, along with plenty of new ones, making the three days a truly memorable experience.
A Community Feel
Being based in Tullamore gave this year’s Ploughing a real community feel for our team. We had countless conversations with neighbours, local businesses, and families who were eager to learn more about the role solar energy can play in powering their homes and reducing energy costs. It’s always rewarding to meet people where we live and work, and we couldn’t be prouder to represent Offaly on such a big stage.
Partners That Made It Special
We were honoured to share our stand with the Men’s Shed, whose involvement brought an added sense of community spirit to the site. Their presence drew so many people in, and we’re grateful to have partnered with them this year.
We were also delighted to be located alongside Certa, another key player in Ireland’s journey toward a sustainable future. Sharing space with like-minded organisations created a brilliant atmosphere of collaboration and mutual support.
Our Ploughing Solar Offer
Of course, the Ploughing wouldn’t be complete without a few surprises. This year, we ran a special promotion: anyone who books a solar installation of 4kW or larger before 30th November will receive two additional solar panels completely free of charge.
For those who spoke with us at the stand (and for anyone still on the fence), this is the perfect opportunity to take the next step. Not only will you reduce your reliance on rising energy costs, but with the free panels, you’ll increase your system’s output and long-term savings.
Looking Ahead
The National Ploughing Championships always remind us why we do what we do: bringing renewable energy solutions to homes and communities across Ireland. We’re already looking forward to next year, but for now, our focus is on helping the people we met, and many more besides, make the switch to solar.
If you’re considering solar for your home, don’t wait. Secure your installation before 30th November to avail of our exclusive Ploughing offer.
Together, let’s power a brighter, more sustainable future.
