As soaring energy costs continue to strain Irish businesses, solar photovoltaic (PV) technology has emerged as a beacon of hope, offering a cost-effective and sustainable path to energy independence. Leading the way in this industry is Solgrid, a Galway-based Commercial Solar PV and renewables company dedicated to empowering businesses with tailored solutions that maximise return on investment.
Solgrid’s expertise is rooted in a rich heritage of design, engineering and installation experience, spanning over two decades. This deep understanding of the industry has earned the company a reputation as a leading commercial Solar PV and renewables company in Ireland.
At the heart of Solgrid’s success is its unwavering commitment to customer-centric excellence. From the initial energy consultation to system commissioning, Solgrid’s meticulous project management ensures that every step is handled with care and precision without compromising quality or safety. This approach has resulted in a long line of success stories, each a testament to Solgrid’s dedication to delivering optimal outcomes for its clients.
Managing Director Enda Broderick captures Solgrid’s philosophy: “We prioritise customer-driven excellence, quality, trust, and safety. This approach guides every project we do. We design customised solar systems that perfectly align with our clients’ needs and maximise their return on investment while enhancing sustainability.”
One such success story is Topform, a leading kitchen worktop manufacturer based in Galway. With an energy consumption so substantial that it necessitates its own ESB substation, Topform turned to Solgrid to achieve its key sustainability and cost reduction objectives.
Solgrid’s team of engineers meticulously designed and installed a large-scale 232 kWp Solar PV roof-mounted system, encompassing five distinct roof sections across an area of 1,104 square meters. This impressive installation is estimated to generate approximately 193,348 kW hours of renewable electricity annually for the next three decades, representing a significant 21% of Topform’s overall annual usage.
Paul Glynn, Managing Director of Topform, expressed his utmost satisfaction with Solgrid: “I needed a company I could trust to implement a sustainable energy solution. Solgrid, for me, were the complete package of knowledge, quality, and support that I needed.”
Paul Glynn further commended Solgrid’s team for their professionalism: “A solar installation of our size was going to be disruptive, but the thing that impressed me most about Solgrid was the professionalism of the people who installed our system and the human way they worked with us. We found them extraordinarily easy to work with.”
Quality is also a top priority for Solgrid. The company has partnered with Hanwha Q Cells, one of the world’s largest and most recognised photovoltaic manufacturers, known for high-quality, high-efficiency solar cells and modules. Enda Broderick noted: “We invest in Tier one panels that align with our commitment to maintaining the highest quality standards in our industry; this enhances our confidence that we provide the best possible products to our customers.”
