This week on Ireland’s Classic Hits Radio we’re looking at the advantages to investing in Solar Panels.
Benefits of Residential Solar:
- Pollution Free:
Solar energy causes no greenhouse gasses to be omitted after installation so it doesn’t damage our environment.
2. Reduces dependency on fossil fuel:
The more solar energy is used, the less we will rely on the world’s finite fossil fuels.
3. Low maintenance:
Solar panels require less maintenance than many alternative forms of power generation and most panels will last between 25-30 years.
4. Power every day:
Although the sun may not shine every day, solar panels will still generate some power.
5. Hot water:
Although there is an upfront cost, solar panels are a fantastic way to generate hot water for a fraction of the price of an electric or gas-powered system in the long run.
6. Grants and tax incentives:
There are grants and tax incentives for households and businesses in Ireland to install solar panels.
- Selling to the Grid:
Additional energy generated by Solar Panels can now be sold back to the grid, meaning that the winter bills are lowered.
