I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Blackwell Energy to all my friends and family.

Fantastic company. Very professional and SEAI sealed approved. I went ahead and got solar panels on my apartment in Blessington County, Wicklow. I am very pleased with the set up. The software they offer is very user-friendly and full of useful Information. Paddy, the boss was a gentleman and the team did an exceptional job. I’m a very pleased customer and I will be recommending this company to neighbours and friends.

Blackwell Energy installed a solar system at our business premises in Celbridge. The whole process was seamless, from survey to completion. They guided us through the grant process, which was even easier than we expected. The installation team were very tidy and there was no disruption to our business. We are delighted with the efficiency of the system which started making savings from day 1.

I've been looking to install solar panels in my place for a while and looked around for quotes from several suppliers. Blackwell Energy gave me not only a competitive quote with also good lead times. After giving the go ahead, installation was quick and with no hassle. Team were quite nice and very professional. After installation the team helped me out finding a good BER assessor and with all my queries etc Would use them again.

Frequently Asked Questions

At Blackwell Energy we understand making the switch to a solar powered system might throw up some question. We have compiled a list of the most commonly asked or click below to read through even more

How does a home solar system work

The solar panels convert the light into DC electricity, and the inverter converts this DC electricity into AC electricity for use in your home. The solar system will be connected to your main electricity panel

Can I add more panels to my system?

Yes, it is possible to expand most solar energy systems, but it isn’t always cost-effective for various reasons. In some cases, adding solar panels might be more complicated and expensive than it may seem, but it is typically feasible

Will my panels work in winter?

The short answer to the question above is yes, solar panels are absolutely effective in the winter. In fact, some solar panels may be more effective at generating energy in colder temperatures.

Can I charge my car from solar panels?

Solar panels are a great way to generate renewable energy, and when used in conjunction with an EV charging station, they can provide all the power you need to charge your electric vehicle.

What is installed as part of a home solar system

Solar systems are made up of solar panels (modules), a mounting system, and a solar inverter with computerised controller. Solar panels produce DC electricity from sunlight. Then the inverter converts the generated electricity into AC, so that it can be used in the household

How many solar panels do I need for my home?

Generally speaking, an average family living in a three-bedroom property will require a 10-panel array to meet their electricity needs. 10 panels equal a system size of 4 kWp using today’s average panel size of 400 watts per panel.

Why should I invest in solar energy?

Investing in solar energy can reduce your electricity bills, increase your property value, and decrease your carbon footprint. Additionally, there are various incentives and tax credits available that can lower the upfront cost of installation.

How do solar panels work in Ireland on cloudy or rainy days?

Solar panels still produce electricity on cloudy or rainy days, though their efficiency is reduced. Modern solar panels are designed to capture a broad spectrum of light, so they can generate power even under less-than-ideal conditions
