Results That Matter

This 804kWp solar installation now generates approximately 699,845 kWh of clean electricity each year, offsetting around 209 tons of CO₂ annually. That’s the equivalent energy demand of 167 Irish homes, directly supporting Silverhill’s sustainability goals. With a tailored Power Purchase Agreement in place, the system supplies roughly 25% of the site’s daytime electricity, providing long-term energy security, all delivered with zero disruption and completed in just 8 weeks.
