Alternative Energy, Common Questions
Is Alternative Energy SEAI-registered?
Yes. Alternative Energy appears on the official SEAI registered contractor database for solar PV panel installation in Offaly, which is what allows them to carry out grant-eligible installations and process your SEAI grant application.
How do I get a quote from Alternative Energy?
Contact Alternative Energy directly using the phone number on this page. Nothing goes through us, there is no booking fee, and your details are not passed to anyone else or sold on.
What areas does Alternative Energy cover?
Alternative Energy is based in Offaly and takes work across the county, including Tullamore, Birr, Edenderry, Banagher, Clara, Ferbane and Portarlington (border). Most installers cover their whole county rather than one town, so it is worth confirming your own address when you call.
Do I need to use an installer based in Offaly?
No. SEAI registration is national rather than county by county, so a contractor listed under a neighbouring county can quote for your home and handle the grant the same way. Getting two or three quotes is the only reliable way to see what the work should cost.
Does Alternative Energy only do solar PV panel installation?
On the SEAI register they are listed for solar PV panel installation. They may well do other work, but solar PV panel installation is the measure their registration covers, so it is the one they can process a grant for.
Should anything be done before the installation?
Insulation comes first on any home energy upgrade. A well-sealed house needs a smaller system and runs at a lower cost, and attic and wall insulation carry SEAI grants of their own. Ask about the fabric of the house when you speak to Alternative Energy.
