* Home must have been built before 2011 for insulation & heating controls & before 2021 for renewable grants

** Grants are a set value unless expenditure is less then grant value

*** Available up to the stated figure, consists of base grant, emitter’s grant & bonus. 

**** Technical Assessment not required if pre-BER shows your Heat Loss Indicator is equal to or less than 2.3 W/(K.m2)

***** A BER is required for all grant applications. The BER grant can not be claimed more than once per home.

All SEAI grants must be applied for before any work begins. Once approved, you’ll have an 8-month window to complete the installation works.

After the retrofit measures are completed:

  • The Declaration of Works (DOW) forms must be filled out and submitted to the SEAI.
  • A final Building Energy Rating (BER) must be carried out. This is a required part of your SEAI application and must reflect the improvements made to the property. 
  • The contractor must be paid in full by the homeowner for the grants to be processed.
  • Once submitted, the grant payment is typically issued directly to the homeowner’s nominated bank account within 4 to 6 weeks of submitting the completed documentation.

The SEAI monitors all grant-supported activity by recording the BER of each home before and after the works are completed. They also verify which measures have been carried out and by which contractor. In addition, SEAI may conduct on-site inspections and assessments on selected projects to ensure that all work complies with SEAI quality standards and guidelines.
