Solar PV · Galway
SEAI-registered solar PV installation across Galway city and county. From Salthill terraces to Connemara farmhouses — free roof survey and grant paperwork included.
Galway homes face some of Ireland's most exposed weather and highest heating demand. Solar PV cuts daytime electricity costs and pairs perfectly with a heat pump. A 4 kW array on a south-facing Knocknacarra or Oranmore roof generates 3,400–3,800 kWh per year — covering most family-home daytime use.
Crews based near Galway city covering: Salthill, Knocknacarra, Renmore, Oranmore, Barna, Moycullen, Spiddal, Oughterard, Clifden, Tuam, Athenry, Loughrea, Ballinasloe and Gort. Rural and off-mains supplies welcome — we handle three-phase upgrades and standalone systems.
Houses built before end-2021 qualify for the €1,800 SEAI Solar PV grant. We're SEAI-registered and process the grant directly — you only pay the post-grant amount. We also book the post-install BER assessment included in the price.
