Switching to solar has never been more affordable!

Take advantage of solar panel grants and tax exemptions to reduce the upfront costs of your new solar PV system.

Save On Solar

Available Grants and Incentives

All of our solar panel systems are eligible for SEAI grants and VAT exemption which lowers your initial investment, delivers a faster return on investment, and enhanced affordability of advanced systems with battery storage.

SEAI Grants

Homeowners in Ireland can benefit from Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) grants, which offer up to €2,100 for installing solar PV systems. This grant significantly reduces the upfront cost, making solar energy more accessible.

VAT Exemption

A recent government initiative has made solar panel installations VAT-free. This further reduces the overall cost, providing an additional financial incentive to switch to solar energy.
