Project (subject to meeting eligibility requirements).
The battery can be installed in the garage, utility or basement.
The payment is in the form a credit to your electric bill, reflecting your microgeneration output in that time period.
SEAI grants help homeowners, businesses, communities and large industries to reduce their energy costs as well as greenhouse gas emissions.

SEAI's solar electricity grant will be most useful if you plan to install a PV system with us.
The grant is intended to assist you in paying for the installation.

Consider your microgenerational output for that period.
If you are considering installing a solar PV with us, the SEAI grant for solar electricity is the most im-portant.
This grant will make electricity more affordable.
For solar panels to be certified for installation on an Irish home, they’re subjected to rigorous reliability tests which include; dump heat tests, thermal cycling, and humidity freeze, among others.
This grant can help you with the costs of installing solar PV panels in your home to generate renewable electricity.All homeowners, including private landlords, whose homes were built and occupied before 2021 can apply.This is defined as the date your electricity meter was installed and is different to other grant measures where the home must be built before 2011.
Solar PV (photovoltaic panels), most commonly installed on the roof, convert sunlight to electricity with-out producing any carbon emissions. The electricity can be used for heating water, to power your house or stored in batteries. The Microgeneration Support Scheme allows you to receive 21c/kWh credits for any excess electricity exported.
sustainably.
The Irish Government sees solar energy as an important long-term way of expanding the mix of sustain-able energy in Ireland. They have therefore put in place a number incentives to assist Irish consumers in switching to solar.

What is the date your electricity meter was installed?
SEAI can provide grants to help with the costs (subjected to meeting the eligibility requirements).
As a result, costs are falling and there are more varied options available to Irish solar customers.
The Government Microgeneration Support Scheme is now available so that those with a registered microgeneration device can sell any excess electricity back to Ireland's electricity grid. This will help households reduce their carbon footprint and save money.
Solar energy systems can generate electricity in any climate. One of the disadvantages of solar energy is that it's subject to temporary weather disruption. Cloudy days reduce the amount of electricity you produce.
Without a solar battery connected to your solar PV system, any excess energy generated would be fed back into the National Grid. Adding a solar battery to your system is an excellent and efficient way to preserve and use renewable energy, helping you maximise the energy you generate for your home. 6 Apr 2023
