Benefits of solar for your home
It's a common misconception that solar panels need direct sunshine to generate power. Luckily for us in Northern Ireland, solar panels only need daylight — and the average home here uses 10–15 kWh daily, while our domestic systems generate 3,500–6,000 kWh per year.
Solar panels for new builds & developers
Perfectly blend style and functionality with in-roof solar that creates a seamless, modern look while capturing the sun's power. Whether you're building a new home or replacing an ageing roof, an integrated solar roof could be the answer — offering a more aesthetically pleasing finish than standard on-roof panels.
If you're a house developer, incorporating solar at the time of build can save costs further down the line. At this stage, before a roof is fitted, it's also possible to install in-roof panels for the most polished result.

Most common solar panel questions
Do you need to maintain solar panels?
Solar panel systems are made of durable glass and require little to no maintenance. Rain, wind and snow largely self-clean the panels for you.
Will I still receive an electric bill if I have solar panels?
Yes, you'll still receive an electricity bill, but you'll be saving from initial install, with the most noticeable difference in your energy bills between spring and summer.
What size of system will I need for my home?
Most households install a 4kW or 5kW system, with the largest domestic systems typically around 7kW. Every home has different requirements, so our sales team will point you in the right direction.
Do solar panels produce power when the sun isn't shining?
Solar panels produce power 365 days of the year from daylight, not direct sunshine. The amount of power your system generates is dependent on light levels, so panels will produce slightly less energy in winter than in summer.
Do I need a battery with solar panels?
You don't need a battery for your solar PV panels to work. However, energy storage lets you use more of the eco-friendly energy you generate at home rather than exporting it back to the grid, which could save you money. Explore our battery storage options.
