A great experience from start to finish.
I had a great experience with this solar company from start to finish. From
The first phone call
With Donal Enright who was professional, knowledgeable and took the time to clearly explain the entire process, including system design, costs, and expected savings. There were no hidden fees or surprises.
The installation was completed on time, and the crew worked efficiently while keeping everything clean and tidy. The system has been performing exactly as promised, and I’m hoping to see a reduction on my electricity bill.
I would highly recommend this company to anyone considering switching to solar.
We recently had solar panels installed…
We recently had solar panels installed by Swyft Solar and overall our experience was positive from day one through to the finished product.
From the initial fitting to the final setup, the process was handled well and the end result is something we’re very happy with. Our home has three-phase electricity, which meant different clamps were required than the standard ones to get the system running correctly. This caused some delays and took a few months to fully resolve, but the issue was worked through and completed properly in the end.
Throughout the entire experience, Jessica in the office was outstanding. She was always attentive, listened carefully to any concerns we had, and consistently went out of her way to make sure we felt heard as customers. She did everything she could to ensure we had a good experience and to help move things along when delays arose. Her communication and support made a real difference.
Despite the challenges along the way, we are happy with both the product and service. We would like to give a special thanks to Jessica for all of her efforts as it made the process easier for us.
AVOID!!! WORST COMPANY
Appalling experience which is still ongoing. Salesman visited our home and did a site survey.He promised a good deal which in fact was all false and we only realised on the day of installation when it was already too late. We were promised credit to make up for the false sale (which he refused to put in writing)
The Installers damaged property (smashed glass) which we were told would be replaced immediately. We are now 4 months on and I have lost count of how many follow up emails and calls have fallen on deaf ears. Currently at the point of seeking legal advise. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER. Would never recommend them to anyone!
Customer service has improved afetr a slow start.
My solar panels stopped working in Jan 2026. Over a 2 week period, I was unable to get a response from the company by any means. I finally contacted the founders through LinkedIn and got the problem resolved. Service was good up to that point and since.
I’ve had a great experience with this…
I’ve had a great experience with this company so far! Setup process was straightforward with clear prices and quick replies whenever I’ve had any questions. Would definitely recommend
5 star service!
What a wonderful experience form start to finish. My husband and I had to get our boiler replaced and Swyft Energy went above and beyond to help us. We would highly recommend them. 5 stars!
Stress Free Experience
4 months into my home solar ownership and couldn’t be happier with my choice.
I chose Swyft based on a number of factors; price, reputation, materials used, experience in the market and aftercare.
Having had multiple conversations with different vendors I decided to go with Swyft.
I went with 12 panels, a 9kwh battery and a Zappi charger. Prices were in line with other competitors but it was the reps that sealed it for me. They weren’t pushy and took the time to explain all options well.
When the time came to complete the job, they were in and out in two, half-days. Roof riggers on day 1, electricians on day 2. There was no faff, they were all very efficient and clean. No mess left behind and they took the time to explain everything in person rather than be handed an instruction manual. (I did get that too!)
4 months on and I’ve had very minimal need for aftercare. Everything just works as it's supposed to. When I did contact them with some clarifying questions, the responses were always timely and courteous.
Would highly recommend.
Really happy I got the pannels in
Really happy I got the pannels in, I've really noticed the saveings on my bills. especially this winter as we built up a credit over the summer to sell back to the grid
I would recommend swyft energy
I would recommend swyft energy. We had to replace the boiler in our house when we moved in, the old one was broken, outdated and we don’t know a thing about boilers. We got recommended to talk to swyft energy and the process was seamless from. From the start they had the job assessed, priced, booked and their team helped with availing of grants too.
The day of the boiler replacement, their installer arrived early and was very clear in outlining everything that he would be doing so we were aware of the process. He was in and out within the day, took everything with him and left the place immaculate. We had zoned heating installed which made a big difference to the house and we haven’t had a problem.
I’d be happy to recommend swyft and have recommended them to many people in person since working with them.
Had solar install by Swyft great…

Great company to deal with it
Appalling On-Going Experience
The installation service for our Solar Panel System has been nothing short of appalling since our panels arrived on Dec 1st 2025. The entire service offered by Bord Gais/Swyft Energy is far too fragmented with multiple sub-contractors all carrying out various tasks but no overall accountability taken by anyone once something goes wrong! After the panels were installed on Dec 1st we discovered an issue with our 5kw battery & reported it to Swyft Energy but no response! Eventually we contacted the installation electrician (subcontractor to Swyft) directly & he called back to rectify the situation however he did say that an engineer from Swyft would call the following day to carry out a further piece of work on the optimisers. One week later & no sign of the Engineer so the phone calls began & since then (6 weeks ago) we have failed to resolve the issue. Despite numerous promises from Patrick at Swyft(who is being constantly let down) we still await an electrician to complete the installation of our system. To date we have not received a single phonecall from anyone at Swyft/Bord Gais to tell us what's happening...very disappointing that we have a system that's fully paid for but not working after nearly seven weeks!!
A very positive experience.
The easiest and most seamless experience from point of contact untill installation of my new boiler, updates in between and knowledgeable efficient customer service, couldn't reccomend enough.
Excellent and Easy Energy install
very easy process from initial contact throught to project review and guided through all the steps of the installation including the navigation through grant applications. Also since installation great customer backup and enquiry availability. Couldnt recommend highly enough and a game changer for our long term energy strategy.
Appalling post sales support
Our new gas boiler system installed in August 2022. Every year since, the boiler has failed its annual service. Finally, stopped working completely on January 02 2026.
My main complaint is that the after-sales service and support is appalling. The attitude is that 'we're too busy to help' even though it came with a 7 year parts and service warranty. They also refused to cover the cost of finding an alternative solution provider.
Supportive
Supportive, informative, professional and helpful throughout the process
Great Service
From Mick calling at my door a few weeks ago, to John and Liam the electricians switching everything on, I have to say it was a very fast and efficient service. The pre-checks was all done, all relevant questions asked and answered. The install was last Friday 12th December,. Electricians arrived 1st to started the running of the wiring and install of monitoring board, so neatly done by the way. Next came the lads working on the roof installing the supports and mounting the panels, with the gentleman from Height for Hire and I do mean Gentleman. I'm sorry to say that thier names of the lads on the roof escape me currently but nicer you'd be hard to meet. My almost 3 year old granddaughter who was with me that day was fantastic watching them work, they even said they'd checked and make sure the chimney was ready for Santa.
Anyway to Mick, Barry, Rebecca in the office and to the team on the day a very big thank you

The whole experience with Swyft energy…
The whole experience with Swyft energy was very professional, from initial quote to order and installation. The crew that came to fit our 14 panels were very quick and professional. The job was completed by a very good electrician who was neat and tidy and professional. Aileen in operations, was again she was joy to deal updating me on the various arrival dates of the installation crews. There were one or two things I needed explained regarding the 14kw battery set up but again Aileen responded quickly and clearly explained what needed to be done. I would recommend Swyft Energy from the point of view of technology they use the installation, support and price. Overall I think they represent a very good balance of value and quality hardware and installation. I would recommend using swift energy.Barry

I had a wonderful experience with Swift…
I had a wonderful experience with Swift Energy for my solar panel installation from start to finish. The staff were very helpful and punctual throughout the process. I chose Swift Energy because they are a reputable company, and I have no regrets in selecting them for my solar installation. I have Huwei system though it’s slightly expensive compared to other offerings in the market. But it’s not the problem of Swift.
Swift ,Excellent service.
Excellent service. Johnny , a roofer, came out to check a possible leak. He was very professional and helpful. He put our mind at ease. The customer care at this company is very good and easy to contact. I would highly recommend Swyft Energy.
