Solar water heaters and Solar electric (photovoltaic) systems
	BATEC flat plate solar water heaters Pictured is a commercial installation consisting of 6 BATEC BA22 collectors providing hot water for THE DOLMEN CENTRE, Portnoo, Co. Donegal. An average domestic installation consists of 2 BA22 collectors. Typical price EURO 3500.- (including storage cylinder, controller and fittings, not including installation labour)
THERMOMAX vacuum pipe collectors Vacuum pipe collectors provide the highest efficiency available today. The picture shows a domestic hot water and space heating installation consisting of 50 tubes (20 + 30).
	Photovoltaic panels Photovoltaic panels are the ideal power source in remote locations, where grid connection is costly. The picture shows a 1.2kW solar array powering a remote home in conjunction with a Diesel generator. The generator charges the same batteries as the PV panels, so even in winter it only has to run occasionally. Before the installation if the solar system, the Diesel generator was the only electricity source. The solar system reduced Diesel consumption by some 100 litres per week.
Photovoltaic power for boats Surely the most convenient on-board power for boats is photovoltaic (solar-electric) power. In engine driven boats, photovoltaic panels can keep the batteries charged while the engine is not running.
	Solar driven boats Solar power can also drive small dinghies like the one pictured here via an electric outboard motor. No need for noisy and polluting 2stroke engines. No need for carrying and refilling petrol. Price example: 110Watt solar module, regulator, 100Ah gel battery, 35lbs thrust engine: EURO 1700.-
Enniscrone 'Water Point' The popular indoor swimming pool near Ballina now solar heated! 60 square metres of solar panels heat pool and shower water. An oil boiler boosts temperature as necessary. The system generates approximately 30 000 kWh of heat per year, saving some 3300 litres of heating oil.
	Solar and wind electricity on a Cavan lake island 'Trinity Island Lodge', a luxury holiday home on a lake island in County Cavan, gets its power mainly from solar electric (PV) panels and a wind generator. Solar panels with a peak output of 1.8kW and a 1kW wind generator charge a 24V, 1800Ah battery bank. Two inverters rated 2.5kW each turn the battery power to standard 230VAC electricity. In prolonged dull-and-calm weather or in case of excessive usage, a Diesel generator starts automatically providing electricity as well as charging the battery bank.
