Solar PV Installation at McEvoy Farm

After 50 years of farming, the McEvoys describe solar PV as a clean, zero-maintenance solution that was installed in just a few days with no disruption, delivering easy returns and strong benefits with “no hassle” and “no work” required.

John & Rory McEvoy – McEvoy Farm

I’m farming here myself for about 50 years now at this stage, with the solar panels it is very clean, it’s zero work and your catching energy from the sun what’s better than that.

We had absolutely nothing to do ourselves,we had the shed there which was very suitable and the guys came from PV Generation and only a few days, now no hassle whatsoever. It was all the work that they had to do complete in a few days, no interruption to the farming system. The real beauty is we don’t have to do anything with it, it’s one of the few things in Farming where there is no work and yet you get a return. Every Farmer should have it, it’s a no-brainer. I’d recommend it to anyone.
