HOME SOLAR PV
Solar Panels for Your Home
Generate your own electricity with a Solar PV system designed around your home and energy use. Laltec installs solar panels, inverters and battery storage for homeowners across Ireland.
SOLAR PV FOR HOMES
Generate Electricity from Your Own Roof
Solar panels allow your home to generate electricity from daylight. You can use that electricity as your Solar PV system produces it.
As a result, you may reduce the amount of electricity you need to buy from the grid.
Laltec installs home Solar PV systems across Ireland. Before installation begins, we assess your property, roof space and electricity requirements so we can recommend a system that suits your home.
In addition, battery storage can be included where it makes sense for the way you use electricity.

BENEFITS OF HOME SOLAR
Why Consider Solar Panels for Your Home?
Solar PV gives your home another source of electricity. Instead of relying entirely on grid electricity, your property can use power generated from the panels on your roof.
For example, electricity generated during the day can help run appliances, lighting and other household equipment.
The benefit depends on your roof, electricity use and system size. Therefore, we recommend planning the Solar PV system around the home rather than simply fitting as many panels as possible.
Benefits can include
- Generate electricity at home
- Reduce reliance on grid electricity
- Make productive use of roof space
- Add battery storage where appropriate
- Plan the system around household electricity use
- Combine solar with other electrical upgrades
HOME SOLAR ASSESSMENT
Is Your Home Suitable for Solar Panels?
Many homes can benefit from Solar PV, but every property is different.
First, we look at the available roof area and how the roof is positioned. We also consider shading, access and the condition of the existing electrical installation.
Next, we discuss how much electricity the household uses and when that electricity is normally used.
From there, we can recommend a Solar PV system that fits the property and your requirements.
SOLAR BATTERY STORAGE
Should You Add a Battery to Your Home Solar System?
A solar battery can store some of the electricity generated by your Solar PV panels for use later.
For example, electricity generated during the day may be stored and used when your panels are producing less power.
However, a battery will not suit every household in the same way. For this reason, we consider how and when you use electricity before recommending battery storage.
A battery can be installed as part of a new Solar PV system or considered as part of a future upgrade, depending on the equipment and installation.
Why Choose Laltec for Home Solar PV?

Solar Panels for Home FAQs
Common questions about home Solar PV, installation, costs, battery storage and solar panels in Ireland.
Do solar panels work well on homes in Ireland?
Yes. Solar PV panels generate electricity from daylight, so they do not rely only on direct sunshine. However, output will vary with the weather, daylight hours and time of year.
How many solar panels does my home need?
The right number depends on your electricity use, available roof space and the size of system you want. For this reason, we assess the property before recommending a home Solar PV system.
How much do solar panels for a home cost?
The cost depends on the size of the Solar PV system, number of panels, inverter, roof access and electrical work required. In addition, battery storage can affect the overall project cost.
Therefore, the best way to get an accurate price is to assess the home and plan the system around your requirements.
What affects the cost of a home Solar PV system?
Several factors can affect the price. These include the number of panels, system size, roof type, inverter requirements and battery storage.
In addition, the condition of the existing electrical installation and any electrical upgrades required can affect the final quotation.
How does a home solar panel installation work?
First, we discuss your home, roof space and electricity requirements. Next, we plan the Solar PV system around the property and your expected electricity use.
We then install the solar panels, inverter and associated electrical equipment. Finally, we test the system and explain how it operates.
More Home Solar PV Questions
Can I add a battery to my home solar panels?
Yes. A battery can store some of the electricity generated by your Solar PV system for use later. However, the benefit depends on how and when your household uses electricity.
Will solar panels reduce my electricity bill?
Solar PV can reduce the amount of electricity your home needs to buy from the grid. However, the actual benefit depends on the system size, electricity use and when you use power.
Can solar panels be installed on an older house?
In many cases, yes. First, we consider the available roof space and existing electrical installation. We can then advise if any electrical work should take place before the Solar PV installation.
Can I upgrade my Solar PV system later?
Depending on the existing equipment and installation, future upgrades may be possible. For example, you may want to consider battery storage, inverter changes or other Solar PV improvements later.
