Solar panels in Galway tailored quote

SEAI-registered solar PV installation across Galway city and county. From Salthill terraces to Connemara farmhouses — free roof survey and grant paperwork included.

Why Galway homes go solar

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.

Coverage across County Galway

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.

SEAI grant in Galway

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.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Are solar panels worth it in Galway?

Yes. Galway averages 1,050–1,200 kWh per kWp annually. A 4 kW system generates ~3,400–3,800 kWh per year — enough to cover most daytime use and pay back in 6–8 years.

Will Atlantic weather damage panels?

No — tier-1 panels are rated to 5,400 Pa snow load and 2,400 Pa wind load. We use marine-grade mounting and stainless fixings for exposed Galway and Connemara sites.

Do you cover Connemara and the Aran Islands?

Mainland Connemara yes — Spiddal, Oughterard, Clifden. For the Aran Islands we quote per project depending on ferry logistics.

How much can I save on Galway electricity bills?

A 4 kW system saves €850–€1,000/year off Bord Gáis / Electric Ireland tariffs. With battery, savings rise to €1,200–€1,400 thanks to evening self-use.
