We have worked with clients across many sectors that own different properties. We can work with you to help you harness all of the benefits of solar and renewable energy. The benefits of installing solar panels in Galway are:
Farmers in Co. Galway are increasingly turning to solar PV to help secure the energy future of their farms. The remote west coast of Ireland is an excellent location to generate your own electricity, getting enough daylight to deliver a good return on investment. With solar systems, farmers across Galway are less reliant on grid power, reducing their bills and increasing the profitability of their farm.
Our dedicated farm energy consultant has been working with farmers for almost a decade, bringing lower bills to farmers across Galway.
Our installation and customer service team are trained to the highest standards in the solar power sector. We pride ourselves on giving our customers the highest professional standard of after care and support.
There is on average 1674.78 hours of sunlight in Galway per year, making it an ideal place for your business or agricultural premises to install solar panels. Solar panels are ideally suited to be installed on south-facing roofs but can also work effectively on east or west-facing roofs.
One of the greatest benefits of commercial PV systems is the substantial cost savings. If you operate industrial PV panels, you can sell the excess energy to the utility companies for incurring profits.
You can install solar panels on flat roofs but there are some considerations to be made. There needs to be no obstructions to the solar panels so we can advise you on whether your flat roof is suitable. Many premises are suitable and solar panels can also be installed on the ground in some cases. We will work with you to install your new solar panels where possible and can discuss your eligibility for solar panel installation.
Once your PV system is commissioned, your property can use the self-
generated electricity instead of taking power from the grid, so you’ll see
a lower electric bill. You can also export energy to the grid for profit.
Technology of solar batteries has improved, and costs have reduced,
making solar batteries a very effective way to store solar-generated
power. We can retrospectively fit solar batteries to existing systems for
improved energy savings.
We recommend an annual PV system health check, and panel cleaning
ever 1-3 years. If you live near the Galway coast, you may need more
frequent cleaning. We provide maintenance and cleaning services for
systems across Galway, including those installed by other companies.
