Living here is Ireland it is good news that PV panels don’t need direct sunlight to work. As they still produce electricity on cloudy days. With a long-life span of around 20 years as the panels do not have any moving parts.
Yes, it does, being Ireland we get our fair share of blustery rainy days. Thankfully, with 60% of the energy from indirect sunlight and the remaining 40% coming from the sun’s direct rays.
Good news! Yes, you can sell any surplus electricity back into the grid but it does depends on your utility provider.
As is stated in Irish planning laws, if it over 12 m² of ‘solar panels’ you will then need planning permission. We can assist your architect with sketches and scale drawings if required. We have never had any issues to date installing our system with planning laws.
We would normally complete the installation with a day, depending on the size of the system, weather permitting of course. With some work required inside most of the work is carried out externally.
