Welcome to Solar Panels Ireland - the internet guide to solar energy systems in Ireland.
As the search for alternative energy to fossil fuels, such as oil and coal continues apace, solar energy stands out as the most practical for one simple reason – it is passive energy converted in stand-alone locations. It requires nothing other than a flat solar panel to sunbathe all day on your roof.
Unlike wind energy, no ugly, invasive and expensive wind turbines are required with, of course, the corresponding necessary wind. Wave energy is only in the research stage and is only capable of development by large utility companies and energy investors such is the massive capital requirement.
In Ireland we can have enough Light to power a solar panel sitting on our roof connected to our heating system to generate heated water.
There are Solar energy systems available to convert light into electricity. This technology is here in ireland just waiting to be used.
