About us
How is it that the leading commercial and domestic Solar PV company in Ireland finds its roots in Killanne, County Wexford? In 2011, lifelong entrepreneur, Tom Foley was looking to begin a new business. He had previously built-up and sold the successful Go-Play enterprise that had been constructing high-quality children’s play spaces across Ireland. In conversation with a friend and business contact from UK, Robert Goss, he happened on solar PV. The use of solar panels for domestic and commercial electricity production had been tried and tested in Germany for some time and recent advancements in the technology had led to a boom for the industry in the UK. The rapid expansion of the UK market and clear market niche available in Ireland spoke to Tom’s entrepreneurial spirit and Solar Electric was born.
