Optimal Solar PV Panels for Efficient Electricity Generation in Ireland: Ideal for Homes, Farms, and Businesses
Harness Solar Energy Efficiently with JM Energy Savings
While Ireland might not seem like an ideal location for solar energy, it receives as much solar radiation as many other European countries with millions of solar installations.
Generating electricity from solar panels requires daylight, not heat. In fact, Ireland’s cooler climate enhances the efficiency of solar panels compared to hotter regions. Even in the cold of outer space, the International Space Station relies on solar panels for power.
Rainy weather is no obstacle for solar PV systems. Solar panels work with any form of daylight, whether direct sunlight or diffused light from clouds. On cloudy or rainy days, solar PV panels can still produce up to 25% of their typical output. Moreover, rain helps maintain panel efficiency by washing away dust and pollen.
Solar PV panels operate silently with no moving parts and zero emissions. They convert sunlight into electrical power safely and efficiently, posing no health risks and having a minimal environmental impact.
Electricity costs are continually rising, but you can lock in savings with solar panels. Unlike solar thermal collectors that only produce hot water, solar PV panels generate electricity that can power any appliance. Excess electricity can be used to heat water, stored in battery systems, or potentially sold back to the grid, offering greater versatility.
Choose JM Energy Savings for reliable and efficient solar energy solutions tailored to your home, farm, or business.
Residential Solar Panels
- Start saving on your monthly bill from day one.
- Installing a 3kW – 20 sq. m residential solar PV generation system will create around 2,600kWh of electricity a year, which is over 40% of the average annual electricity demand of an Irish home.
- SEAI homeowner grants up to €2,100 for dwellings built & occupied pre 2021.
-
Reduce your carbon footprint by approximately 15%.

Commercial Solar Panels
- An investment in solar PV generation is an investment in the future as well as your business. The panels will be provide a superior return on investment.
- Businesses can avail of the ACA (Accelerated Capital Allowance).
- A typical 6.1 kWp system generating up to 5,400 kWh annually, savings are up to €1,000 annually and the carbon savings are 1.53 tonnes per year.
Agricultural Solar PV Panels
- Farmers can avail of the Targeted Agricultural Modernisation Scheme (TAMS) on-farm investment scheme.
- Funding up to €9,300 or up to 60% of the overall cost will be available to fund a 6kWp solar system. VAT can be reclaimed through the ACA (Accelerated Capital Allowance).
- Net return on investment is typically around 20% for a 6.6kWp system generating on average around 5,800 kWh per year.
Community Solar Panels
- Whether it’s community halls, sports clubs, churches or other community groups – solar PV can be part of the solution for organisations looking to reduce their dependency on fossil fuels & CO2 emissions.
- An investment in solar PV is an investment in the future as well as a cost saving opportunity. The panels will provide a superior return on investment of approximately 20% throughout the life of the panels which come with a 30 year performance warranty.
- If you have a surplus of power, it can be diverted to heat water. Legislation is under way to allow selling your surplus energy to the grid. This is how you can be part of the solution while getting an excellent return on your investment.
