Irish energy transition firm Pinergy has set out plans to install more than 40MWp of commercial solar capacity across Ireland over the next three years, backed by the appointment of Philip Connor as Head of Commercial Development to drive the programme forward.

As reported by Sustainability Online, the expansion builds on a decade of activity during which Pinergy's commercial solar division has installed more than 60MWp of solar and 1MWh of commercial battery technology across the country. Recent project deliveries include installations at Monart Hotel & Spa, Keoghs Crisps, and Fitzpatrick Motors in Kildare.

Connor said his ambition is to position Pinergy as the leading commercial solar provider in Ireland, targeting recognition "not just for our installation capability, but for our unparalleled lifecycle performance, asset reliability, and our comprehensive integrated energy offering over the long term."

Daire Keating, chief commercial officer at Pinergy, said the solar team sits at the very heart of the company's Energy Services proposition, providing "critical stability and cost control for Irish businesses" against a backdrop of ongoing global energy volatility. He added that Pinergy is setting our sights on leading Ireland's commercial solar and battery sector, shaping the future of how businesses generate, store, and use energy.

Japanese trading and investment conglomerate Sojitz Corporation acquired a majority stake in the Enniscorthy, County Wexford-based business in December 2024, a move Keating said has helped unlock new commercial opportunities for the firm.

Beyond installation, Pinergy's offering spans feed-in tariffs and export payments enabling businesses to supply surplus electricity back to the grid, utility measurement solutions, and EV charging infrastructure.
