SEAI’s solar PV grant is generally aimed at owners of eligible homes, with requirements that can relate to the property’s age, electricity connection or MPRN, BER details and whether a solar grant has already been claimed for that address. You normally need to use an SEAI-registered contractor and receive the required approval before installation begins, as starting work too early may affect eligibility. Conditions and grant rates can change, so the final decision depends on your application and property details. Check the current rules on SEAI.ie and ask a registered contractor to confirm the position before proceeding.
