Supporting Ireland’s energy transition and a sustainable future through solar
Solar Ireland (formerly the Irish Solar Energy Association) is the trusted voice of Ireland’s solar industry. We represent the sector through policy engagement, collaboration, and education – working to maximise the role of solar in delivering a decarbonised, equitable, and secure energy system.
We support members across the solar value chain – from utility-scale developers and rooftop installers to supply chain partners, investors, and advisors. Together, we are helping shape a solar-powered Ireland that works for communities, businesses, and future generations.
