Solar solutions for homes in Sligo and the North West
More homeowners across Sligo are now looking at solar as part of a practical plan to reduce electricity costs and improve energy performance. In this windy North West region, from homes closer to Strandhill and Rosses Point to properties further inland near Carraroe or Lough Gill, Drumshanbo or Dromahair, solar is increasingly being considered alongside other retrofit and heating improvements.
At Green Air Technologies, we look at solar as part of the bigger picture. A solar installation should not be treated as an isolated add on if the homeowner is also reviewing attic insulation, cavity insulation, external insulation, heat pumps or a broader residential upgrade. That joined up view helps homeowners make better long term decisions and avoid work being repeated later.

How solar fits into wider home upgrades
Solar often works best when considered alongside other energy improvements. Depending on the property, homeowners may also be reviewing:
renewable packages
heat pumps
deep retrofit residential
attic insulation
cavity insulation
external insulation
For some properties, solar is the first practical step. For others, it makes more sense as part of a wider upgrade plan shaped around heating demand, insulation standards and future electricity use. In those cases, Renewable Packages and Deep Retrofit Residential can help homeowners see how a more joined up plan may work.

A straightforward route to the right service

If you are still comparing options, this category page should help you understand that solar is often maximised when planned as part of a more complete energy strategy for the home.
Homeowners who want official background guidance can also review the SEAI Solar PV grant information, ESB Networks microgeneration information and Citizens Information on microgeneration. These are useful reference points, but for most visitors the main next step will still be the dedicated service page or a direct enquiry.
Key points about the SEAI Solar PV Grant
The grant must be applied for before works begin
The installer must be SEAI registered
The installation must be carried out by a registered electrical contractor
MCS certification is required for the panels and inverter
As a registered approved qualified SEAI contractor, we manage the full grant application process at no additional cost to you - like a one stop shop. The grant is deducted from the installation cost, reducing what you pay from the outset.
Following installation, you should register for the Micro-generation Support Scheme (MSS) with your electricity supplier to begin receiving payment for surplus exports.
Are you entitled to a SEAI Solar Grant?
SEAI provides grants for solar PV installation on domestic properties in Ireland. The current grant is available to homeowners whose properties were built and occupied before 2021. The grant amount is calculated based on the size of the system installed, up to a maximum capacity.

Solar Solutions Frequently asked questions
Is this page the main solar service page?
No. This is the solar category page. It gives an overview of solar solutions or services we offer and helps direct visitors to the most relevant service page. The detailed information about domestic solar PV systems is on the dedicated Solar Panels PV service page.
Why keep the category page shorter than the service page?
A category page and a service page should each have a different role. The category page acts as a hub and supports site structure. The service page is where the detailed conversion focused information should live.
Can solar be combined with other upgrades?
Yes. Solar is often reviewed alongside Heat Pumps, Cavity Insulation, Attic Insulation and wider Deep Retrofit Residential planning. That depends on the home, the available budget and the overall project goals.
Do you work across Sligo and Leitrim?
Yes. Green Air Technologies works with homeowners in Sligo and nearby parts of Leitrim, with the Sligo office supporting the main service focus for this section of the site.
What should I do next if I want solar panels?
The best next step is to visit the dedicated Solar Panels PV service page and request a survey or quotation if the service looks right for your property.
