Understanding the Solar Installation Journey

At Solar Path, we break down the solar panel installation process into clear, manageable steps, giving you all the information needed from start to finish. Here’s how we work:

1. Initial Design & Quote

Provide your Eircode and a few details, and we’ll prepare a free quote and design proposal using satellite imagery. This includes projected solar energy installation cost, electricity production estimates, available grants, and the expected payback period for your investment in residential solar installation.

2. Site Survey

Our engineer visits your property to carry out a detailed site survey, reviewing your roof’s condition, orientation, and electrical setup. We then fine-tune the design to meet your specific needs, ensuring maximum efficiency.

3. Finalised Proposal

Within a day or two, we provide a comprehensive system design proposal and a finalised quote. Your dedicated solar engineer will walk you through every aspect, answering your questions so you’re fully informed.

4. ESB Networks Application

We handle the application process with ESB Networks to notify them of your new PV solar system. Approval typically takes around 20 days.

5. SEAI Grant Application (Optional)

As an SEAI-approved installer, we guide you through the grant application process. Most households are eligible for grants of up to €2,100, making the cost of solar panels and installation even more affordable.

6. Deposit & Installation Scheduling

After final confirmation, a deposit secures your installation date. Our team then schedules a convenient time to install your solar PV system, which typically takes 1 to 2 days.

7. Installation Day

On installation day, our professional team fits the solar panels to your roof. Our electricians connect the system inside your home. Once completed, we tidy up, including hoovering and removing all packaging.

8. Commissioning & Final Payment

After installation, we conduct comprehensive tests to ensure everything works perfectly. Once commissioning is complete, the final payment balance is due

9. Start Enjoying Free Energy

Enjoy clean, cost-free electricity immediately! We also finalise your SEAI grant submission, which typically takes 4–6 weeks to process.

"Install was very professional and neat. Very easy to deal with, nothing seemed like an issue to them, even though our roof slates are very difficult to work with (break very easily). The lads also fixed slates in areas of our roof away from the PV install."
