Click on the buttons below to find out how to implement your home energy upgrades. *before you apply
* If you choose to apply for any grant please take note of the following:
- Meter Point Reference Number (MPRN). This number appears on your electricity bill, and is 11 digits long.
- The year in which your house was built. Grants will not apply if your property was built after 2006.
- The particular measures which you wish to undertake as part of the Better Energy scheme.
- You should have already selected an SEAI registered Contractor as you will need to know their name, address and SEAI registered number.
- Your bank details i.e. bank name, bank account name, bank account number and sort code. (Please note they cannot process payments to Credit Union accounts.)
- The grant funds will be debited into the bank account you specify during the application when the work is completed. Basically, you pay the full amount (pre-grant cost) to the contractor and then when the work is completed and signed off you will receive the grant from the SEAI.
- For an online application you will need an email address. In the instance where perhaps you don’t have a personal e-mail address please ask a relative or trusted close friend for use of their e-mail address. You must be able to receive e-mails at this address in order to accept the grant offer. Failure to accept the offer will result in the offer lapsing.
(NOTE: It is very important that the Contractor or Assessor does not apply on your behalf as this contravenes the terms and conditions of their registration.) Grant application must be made by the claimant!
