Agri Solar PV
Generate your electricity, cut fuel bills and have an additional income stream to support your business with a Solar PV installation from Prosolar. Farmers have been experts at harnessing and using solar energy for thousands of years. Almost every form of agriculture relies upon the sun’s power to grow grass, crops or livestock.
Now is the time for your farm to take advantage of this reliable and cost-effective form of electricity generation!
Agricultural Solar PV installations have a payback period of between 3 and 6 years, and panels can be expected to produce electricity for over 30 years. As of 2023, farmers can apply for an enhanced grant rate of 60% – with an investment ceiling of €90,000 – for solar projects under the new TAMS 3 programme!
SEAI and TAMS grants are available to reduce day-one installation costs. One can claim a 100% tax write-off in the year of the solar installation (ACA), and VAT can be reclaimed.
We specialise in grid-connected systems up to 500kW, which enable you to sell excess solar power to the grid as an additional income stream. Give us a call to learn more about the finances of a solar PV installation for your farm!
