Solar panels Dublin produce electricity and are known as solar photovoltaic (PV) modules. These solar panels generate electricity when exposed to light. Solar PV is the rooftop solar you have seen on homes and businesses in Dublin. Solar panels that produce hot water are known as solar thermal collectors or solar hot water collectors. Most homes in Dublin need six or seven solar panels, which is a 2-kilowatt system.
Solar panels will help Dublin residents save on energy bills and be less reliant on energy suppliers, and even have the potential to earn money by exporting unused solar power generated to the grid. Solar PV installations Dublin are considered ‘permitted development’ and generally do not require planning permission.
