As more Irish companies look to reduce their energy costs and carbon footprint, commercial solar power has emerged as one of the most effective solutions. At Pinergy, we help businesses across Ireland make smarter energy choices through clean generation, data insights, and sustainable innovation.
One of the first questions we help clients answer is whether a rooftop solar panel or ground-mounted solar panel system is the right fit for their site.
Commercial Rooftop Solar – Maximise Your Building’s Potential
- Space efficiency: Makes use of existing roof areas, preserving valuable ground space for business operations or parking.
- Lower installation costs: Rooftop systems typically involve less groundwork and faster installation.
- Improved energy efficiency: Power is generated and used on-site, reducing transmission losses and grid dependence.
- Strong sustainability image: Visible panels on your building demonstrate your commitment to renewable energy and carbon reduction.
Before installation, it’s important to assess roof age, shading, and orientation to ensure maximum solar yield.
Ground-Mounted Solar – Designed for Scale and Performance
- Greater capacity: Perfect for large-scale operations like manufacturing or agri-business.
- Optimised sunlight capture: Panels can be angled for maximum generation throughout the year.
- Easier access: Ground-mounted arrays simplify maintenance and performance monitoring.
- Expandable design: Systems can grow with your business and future energy goals.
Do you need planning permission for ground mounted solar panels? Yes ground installations may require additional land and planning approvals, but they deliver unmatched scalability and long-term returns.
