D13 housing stock

The Dublin 13
solar reality.

We've installed in Dublin 13 (Sutton, Howth, Baldoyle, Donaghmede) dozens of times. The sutton/howth coastal detached (premium) stock dominant here has its own quirks — and our standard D13 install kit is built specifically for it.

Dominant housing type

Sutton/Howth coastal detached (premium) + Baldoyle 1980s estates + Donaghmede 1960s.

Built mostly 1960-2010 mixed. Estimated 33,200 residents across the routing key.

Roof reality

Natural slate (Howth period) + concrete tile (estates) + standing-seam metal on modern Howth Head builds dominates D13.

Average usable south-facing roof area: 55 m². Fits up to 28 panels at 2 m² each — but we typically size to 14 panels for the available area and household consumption.

Microclimate

Coastal — Howth Head exposure; Howth wind speeds 15% above Dublin avg; salt deposit highest in north Dublin.

Solar irradiation (PVGIS data for Dublin): 1020 kWh/m²/yr. D13 matches the all-Ireland irradiation average.

Our D13 approach

Stainless mounting hardware mandatory. Wind-loading calc required for Howth Head installs. Premium customer base — typical install is 5-6 kWp + battery.
