D05 housing stock

The Dublin 5
solar reality.

We've installed in Dublin 5 (Raheny, Killester, Edenmore) dozens of times. The 1950s-60s semi-detached on quarter-acre plots stock dominant here has its own quirks — and our standard D05 install kit is built specifically for it.

Dominant housing type

1950s-60s semi-detached on quarter-acre plots + Killester railway cottages.

Built mostly 1949-1965 mostly. Estimated 33,100 residents across the routing key.

Roof reality

Concrete tile (Tegral, Sandtoft) — 80% of stock dominates D05.

Average usable south-facing roof area: 52 m². Fits up to 26 panels at 2 m² each — but we typically size to 13 panels for the available area and household consumption.

Microclimate

Solar irradiation (PVGIS data for Dublin): 1020 kWh/m²/yr. D05 matches the all-Ireland irradiation average.

Our D05 approach

Generous roof areas allow larger systems (5+ kWp). We frequently combine solar with EV charger installs here — high two-car-household ratio.
