Every solar job in the planning record, before the quote goes in.
Solar PV across the 31 councils, told apart by the kind of site: commercial and farm rooftops, ground-mounted farms, new farm buildings with a roof to fill, and new homes being designed now. Filter it, watch your counties, and on Max see the organisation behind each one.
The old way
Solar work is won by whoever is first in the door, and by the time a roof is on the market the owner has already had two quotes.
There's a faster way to the work.
What you get
Built around how solar pv installers & developers actually win work
Commercial rooftops
Warehouses, factories, schools, offices, retail and leisure buildings with PV on the roof, on their own filter and kept apart from domestic jobs. Big roofs, one decision maker, one install.
Farms and new farm buildings
Rooftop PV on farm buildings no longer needs planning, so the building is the lead: new slatted sheds, barns, dairy and poultry units, on a filter of their own, while the roof is still being designed.
Solar farms and ground-mounted arrays
Ground-mounted schemes and solar parks, with the capacity read from the statutory notice where it is stated. For EPCs, cable and fencing contractors and the supply chain around a project.
Residential, at the right moment
Domestic panels are mostly exempt development, so they seldom appear as solar applications. The lead is the new house or extension being built: track them by county and pitch the roof before the slates go on.
Installers: your counties, weekly
Save the solar filter for the counties you cover and get a weekly email with the rows attached. Every lead links to the council record it came from.
Who to call, and how to open
On Max, the applicant organisation wherever a company applied, with its published contact details, Company 360 across every other scheme it is behind, an AI-written first approach grounded in the project, and a signed webhook the moment a match appears. Private applicants are never stored or profiled.

Questions installers ask
Do solar panels need planning permission in Ireland?
Rooftop solar on homes, and on many commercial, industrial and farm buildings, is exempt development subject to conditions, so it seldom appears on the planning register. Ground-mounted arrays and solar farms generally do need permission. Check the current regulations for a specific site.
What solar leads does PlanningLeads track?
Four kinds, each on its own filter: commercial and farm rooftop solar, solar farms and ground-mounted arrays, new farm buildings with a roof to fill, and new houses and extensions where the roof is still being designed. Every lead links to the council record it came from.
Can I see who is behind a solar project?
On Max, yes: the applicant organisation wherever a company applied, with its published contact details and Company 360 listing every other scheme it is behind. Private applicants are never stored or profiled.
Which plan do I need?
The solar filters work free on every plan. Pro adds the map, the Solar Opportunity feed and saved alerts. Max, at €299 a month at early-bird pricing, adds the company behind each lead, Company 360, the AI first approach, webhooks, the API and exports. You can cancel anytime.
“Every week it tells us which new developments in our area will need planting, before anyone else calls them.”
Every lead links back to the official public record.
Planning authorities, Building Control, the company register and EU tenders - assembled automatically, never invented. You can always check the source.
