Did you know you can save up to 75% on your electricity bills with Activ8 Solar Energies?

As uncertainty over energy costs continues to be a pressing issue, more Irish homeowners are turning to solar power as a smart, long-term solution. With government grants available up to €1,800 and major advances in technology in recent years, solar PV panels are more accessible and affordable than ever before.

Activ8 Solar Energies, based in Carrickmacross, have been leading the way on solar in Ireland since 2007, long before the Irish general public were ready to jump on board the “solar coaster” which is sweeping across the nation currently. They have installed solar on over 22,000 homes and businesses across Ireland and boast the most SEAI grant approved solar PV installs in Ireland for the last six years running.

Activ8 has built a reputation for excellence, partnering with SSE Airtricity, their 4.8/5 rating on Trustpilot from over 2,000 reviews speaks for itself. Their installers take on dedicated training for 6 weeks at the Activ8 Solar Academy to ensure the highest standards are maintained.

For homeowners ready to start their solar journey, Activ8 offer a hassle-free process, handling all paperwork for SEAI grants of up to €1,800. The benefits are clear: a solar PV system installed by Activ8 with SSE Airtricity as your electricity supplier can
cut electricity bills by up to 75%, with most systems paying for themselves within six years. Any excess energy can be sold back to the grid at Ireland’s highest export rate of 29.5c per kWh through the PremiumGen scheme exclusive to Activ8 and
SSE.

Energy storage is another key advantage, and Activ8 is Ireland’s Exclusive Platinum Partner for Duracell Home Storage Batteries, ensuring reliable backup power when needed. Homeowners can trust that their investment is built to last, backed by
comprehensive warranties and aftercare through the dedicated Customer Service team based in Carrickmacross.

Activ8 isn’t just about powering homes, they are about powering local communities too. As one of the largest employers in the renewable energy sector, they create high-quality jobs in Carrickmacross and beyond. In the past year alone, they have hired over 100 new employees, supporting local families and driving economic growth in the area.

The success story hasn't gone unnoticed, with Activ8 picking up the Deloitte Best Managed Companies Award and the Irish Climate Change Leadership Green Energy Supplier Of The Year Awards in 2025.
