Magherafelt · Cookstown · Dungannon
Farms, factories and family homes: solar for Mid Ulster.
Magherafelt, Cookstown and Dungannon sit 45 minutes to an hour west of Belfast. We cover the three towns, Maghera, Moneymore and Coalisland, and the farmland between them on regular runs.
Local knowledge
How we work across Mid Ulster.
Mid Ulster is Northern Ireland's engine room — engineering, food processing, construction and some of the most intensive farming in the country — and that shapes the solar work. Poultry houses, dairies and processing sheds carry big, steady daytime loads on three-phase supplies, which is the best case for agricultural and commercial solar: a high share of generation used on site, G99 connection handled, payback measured in a few years rather than a decade.
The housing is generous too: large detached homes and bungalows on their own plots, many with a shed or garage roof that makes a better array site than the house. Oil heating is the norm, so a battery plus an eddi hot-water diverter usually earns its place, and the long commutes into Belfast make home EV charging a common add-on. We design each system off real usage and the roof in front of us — not a county average.

NICEIC approved
Electricians across Mid Ulster.
Three-phase board work comes with the territory — new loads, PV isolation, generation metering — and we do it to the letter as a NICEIC Approved Contractor. Landlords book EICRs from £180 +VAT; older homes get a consumer unit replacement before a charger goes on.
Fault-finding on farm and workshop circuits is methodical — test, isolate, prove, fix — and smart heating controls stop oil-fired homes heating rooms nobody's in.
Mid Ulster questions
Asked locally, answered straight.
Is solar worth it on a poultry or dairy farm in Mid Ulster?
Usually one of the strongest cases we see. Ventilation, cooling and milking run through daylight hours, so most of what the roof makes is used on site. We design off your real consumption, handle the three-phase G99 application with NIE Networks and size for the enterprise, not a brochure.
Can you do a business roof in Cookstown or Dungannon?
Yes — offices, workshops, processing units and retail. We model on half-hourly data where it exists, handle the NIE paperwork and fit around your operation rather than through it.
Do I need planning permission for roof-mounted solar here?
Domestic and most farm or commercial roof-mounted systems are permitted development in NI within size and position rules; ground-mounted arrays and listed buildings have their own conditions. We'll confirm before you commit.
Is a battery worth it for an oil-heated home?
Often yes: a battery keeps the daytime surplus for the evening and can charge on cheap overnight rates, and an eddi diverter pushes what's left into the hot-water cylinder so the oil boiler does less. Solar plus battery starts from £6,750 installed.
Do you cover Maghera, Moneymore and Coalisland?
Yes — and the farmland between. Mid Ulster is a regular run for us, quoted on the same basis as Belfast.
