Solar panels, batteries and EV chargers in Newry
Newry and south Down get slightly better annual irradiance than the north coast, which adds a little to expected yield on an equivalent roof. We use location-specific figures in the estimate rather than a Northern Ireland average.

What matters in Newry
- Roofs and wiringStrong rural and agricultural demand across south Armagh and the Mournes, where three-phase supplies on farms open up larger arrays and faster EV charging. In and around Newry, Warrenpoint and Kilkeel there is a mix of older town housing and newer estates.
- Getting to youNewry means the full length of the M2, M1 and A1 from Larne. We make that run for surveys, installs and aftercare, and book visits with you instead of offering a same-day call-out.
Planning and permissions
The Mourne Mountains and the Ring of Gullion are both Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which matters for ground-mounted arrays and outbuildings more than for house roofs. Newry, Mourne and Down District Council decides, and some town and village centres are conservation areas.
Newry questions
Does Newry get more sun than the north coast for solar?
Slightly, and it shows as a few percent more generation on a similar roof. It is not a reason to choose solar on its own. Roof direction, pitch and shading matter more, and we model all of them from your address before the survey.
Can I fit a 22 kW EV charger at a south Armagh farm?
Only on a three-phase supply, which many farms have and most houses do not. We check the supply and the available headroom at survey. If the farm is three-phase, a faster charger and a larger solar array can share the supply, with load management protecting the main fuse.
Do the Mournes or the Ring of Gullion AONB rules affect my roof?
For a house roof, rarely. The extra scrutiny falls on ground-mounted arrays, new buildings and anything visible across open countryside. If you are in or beside an AONB, ask Newry, Mourne and Down District Council before ordering a ground array.
