Solar Panel Grants and Incentives

Solar Panels for Homes

SEAI Grants for PV Solar Panels Installation

The SEAI grant applies to all homeowners installing PV solar panels. The grant amount depends on the system size you can fit on your roof, with the maximum grant being €2,100 for any system over 4KW. The initial payment is made upfront by the customer, and the grant is claimed back after installation.

The cost of solar panel installation varies depending on the construction of the house. For example, a three-story house requires fixed scaffolding, whereas a single-story bungalow only needs a mobile scaffold tower, reducing costs.

Roof design is also a crucial factor. The number of PV solar panels you can fit, and the roof’s orientation (south/east/west) affects installation. For example, a 10-panel system with a hybrid inverter (allowing for future battery storage) costs €7,200. With the full grant of €2,100, the final cost to the client is €5,100.

The Role of Grants in Solar Energy Solutions

Grants play a crucial role in facilitating the transition to green energy by providing financial assistance to individuals, businesses, and organizations looking to invest in renewable energy technologies like solar panels. These grants help offset the upfront costs associated with installing PV panels, wind turbines, energy-efficient appliances, and other green energy systems.

By offering financial incentives, grants make solar energy solutions more accessible and affordable for a wider range of people. This encourages more individuals and businesses to adopt renewable energy technologies, leading to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and a shift towards a more sustainable energy future. In Europe, specific targets have been set, and Ireland, as an EU member, has seen exponential growth in interest and investment in PV solar panels in recent years.

Promoting Innovation through Grants

Grants also spur innovation in the green energy sector by supporting research and development efforts aimed at improving the efficiency and affordability of renewable energy technologies. This can lead to the development of new and more advanced solar energy solutions that further accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Overall, grants are a valuable tool in promoting the adoption of green energy technologies by providing financial support, encouraging innovation, and helping to create a more sustainable and resilient energy system for the future.

I’ve just had a new Ohme home charger installed by epower. They were highly efficient and professional from quote all the way to installation. The price was competitive and thus far I would have no hesitation recommending epower for home EV charger install.

Paul Cleary

Patrick at epower was great in connecting zappi ev charger to existing myenergi devices at my home , all remotely over the phone.
Great service , highly recommended !

Dan Rea

My Zappi recently developed a fault, and having purchased it originally through EPower I contacted them for support. I was never so happy that I chose EPower as my provider. Not alone did I receive a call back almost immediately, Patrick subsequently spent almost 2 hours on a video call troubleshooting and working through the issue. We eventually decided that a service call was required. Derek arrived on site the following day, and all I can say is that the quality of customer service and customer focus is very obviously part of ePower’s mantra.
Within an hour, my unit had been replaced and I was back up and running.
Thank you Patrick and Derek for your help and support.

I bought a wall charger from ePower approx 3 years ago. They made the whole process so easy and simple from initial sales call to implementation. They also did all the core work with the grant paper work. Perfect. Now 3 years later I ran into issues with the charger, usually at this point, the after sales service of a company is tested. I’m lucky with ePower and how they deal with customers. I had a very nice person called Patrick handle my case. He acted very professionally and really acted on my behave with the original manufacturer who was dealing with the issue. In the end, it was Patrick and ePower who solved my issue with the charger not the manufacturer. Patrick and ePower had every right to blame the manufacturer, as it was solely a hardware issue. They didn’t. Thanks to the efforts of ePower and Patrick, I now have a brand new wall charger. I’m so happy with this company and the service they provided me. Thank up Patrick and Many Thanks ePower.

Thanks to Patrick at ePower who talked me through the steps to update the firmware on my Zappi.
Fast response and great customer service.

Kevin Sturgeon

Found dealing with Patrick at E-Power very easy and his advice and assistance very helpful for setting up my Zappi charging unit.

Adrian Trenaman

Really impressed with the folk from ePower; just had my charger installed and noticed my car was charging very slowly. The support from ePower was superb: they diagnosed the issue over the phone, sent out an engineer to replace a CT clamp, and now my charger is working perfectly. It’s when things aren’t working just right that great companies get to show their class – am really impressed with how ePower solved my issue and fully recommend them!
