Why did I wait so long

I've been interested in solar for a few years but just didn't know if it was too soon for the technology. I'm very glad now that I did install it and that I used Solar Generation. I left a message with a couple of companies expressing an interest in solar, but David called me back the next day. I was surprised to hear back that quickly. Two days later he was at my house discussing the options. I made my mind up that day to go with Solar Generation. I subsequently received a call from another popular company and met with them even though I told them I had made my mind up. I stayed with Solar Generation because I felt they were more professional and I liked the fact that their panels were German. My system is rated at 7.6KW, during good weather in May I was generating 8.6KW. These panels were delivering better than promised efficency. I have no hesitation recommending Solar Generation.

5 Star Service from a skilled and experienced team.

We chose Solar Generation for this investment in solar energy as they were a locally based company who we had heard good reviews about from other people in our community. From the first contact we had with them, their team were top class in every aspect of the following proposal consultations, equipment install, direction of equipment use, and aftercare.

We obtained expert advice on the best system for out families needs and how best to capitalise on our budget and our house size requirements, the system we installed was competitively priced for such technology, during installation the team were clean, quick and friendly, and the team in the aftercare department have been very helpful with our queries since it was installed.

The system has been installed 5 months now and the savings are phenomenal. The house is off the grid for 80% - 90% of the time currently and there is always hot water. A great investment for the future.

Consequently, we have no hesitation highly recommending Solar Generation for this type home improvement to anyone looking to install solar.

Solar Generation were the right choice for our installation. They were knowledgeable, experienced, honest, technical problems were correctly dealt with and no short cuts taken. For an investment like this, I cannot recommend this company more highly. The panels, and accompanying batteries and inverter are of high quality typical of this technology, but I was not sold anything I didn't want or need and I am delighted with the result and the experience.

Beyond Happy & Impressed

I have never experienced such amazing customer service, transparency and installation work. From prompt initial contact after I expressed interest online, to our home consultation, helping with the grant side & installation, everything was made hassle free & explained very well how products, apps etc work. When we visited the showrooms every member of staff was so lovely. We were shown around inc the warehouse which is lovely to see BTS. David was a pleasure to deal with as was everyone else we met in the showrooms or had in our home. My husband works from home so they worked around when the electricity was going to be turned off (on his lunch!). It's a pity it's usually a 1 time job as I would love to give them more business. We had 10 panels installed along with eddi converter and EV Charger and are delighted with them all.

I have to say I was very impressed with the two lads who attached the panels to my house last week, then to add to that the two who came yesterday to connect the panels, the inverter and battery pack were so polite, friendly and even cleaned up after themselves. When they were done they explained the system to me before they left. Then to add to my delight I had hot water last night and this morning, without having to use any other appliance. Off to a good start. I would reccommend this company to anyone considering investing in the solar panels.

July Solar install with the Solar Gen team

Decided to install solar panels in July of this year, driven largely by the escalating costs of energy and the uncertain direction in where things were going. Environmental concerns where there to, but truthfully, costs were king in my head. I did want to keep local in terms of a supplier and a quick Google Search found the Solar Generation team in Sligo. I was delighted to find a local company and even more delighted with the service, from Steve's initial house call in which he expertly walked us through the technology to the roofing guys and electricians, it was seamless (apart from a small glitch in hooking up the 2nd Panel array, which was resolved quickly). The impact has been immense, even in these winter days, our house is still powered pretty much by solar and with the battery installed, we get through peak times without dipping into the grid. Thanks to the team at Solar Generation, over the past 3 months, we've reduced our energy consumption from the grid by 85%, this has surpassed my expectations and then some...Thanks very much to the team at Solar Generation and if anyone is thinking about going solar, do it and give the team in Sligo a call.

p.s. have booked in with the team for installation of a Zappi car charger, so can't wait to see what benefits are there.

They spent a good bit of time at the start finding out what the best system would be for our usage and sent a report on savings and amount of energy we might generate. So we had plenty of good info to make our final decision on. Once we did, the panels went up about a month later in a few hours and then about two weeks later the rest of the system was set up in a day. They did have to come back to reset some settings on the eddi but this was not a problem to organise. They were very good with paperwork and we got out grant in a timely manner through them as well. We made out first megawatt after about 3 months (1000kw) from a 3.7kw system and would highly recommend them.

Solar Generation provided a full and detailed explanation of the panels and installation before the work was due to be carried out. The did a very neat and clean job and gave a run through of all the components. Any questions that I had were answered fully and I was told that I could contact them in the future with any additional questions. The paperwork was processed very efficiently and the grant arrived in due course. I can highly recommend this company.
