Dear Homeowner, |
| On 8 February 2022 the Government approved a package of supports to make it cheaper and easier for homeowners to undertake home energy upgrades for warmer, healthier, and more comfortable homes, with lower energy bills. |
The key measures include: |
|
A new National Home Energy Upgrade Scheme providing increased grant levels of up to 50% of the cost of a typical deep retrofit to a B2 BER standard. One Stop Shops will offer a start-to-finish project management service, including access to financing, for home energy upgrades. |
|
Greatly improved grant support under the Home Energy Grants – Individual Energy Upgrades (aka Better Energy Homes). This process will continue as is with greatly improved grants, up to 80% of cost of works. |
|
We are delighted to inform you of the following changes to grant levels under the Individual Energy Upgrades (Better Energy Homes) |

This means that once homeowners complete works and return the required documentation including signed Declaration of Works, attachments, and the Request for Payment Form (the normal process), the new grant amounts contained in the table above entitled “New Grants” will be applied to their applications.
Note: there is no change for Heating Controls or Solar Heating. |
| Bonus payments will no longer be made for new applicants. However, SEAI will honour bonus payments due on any current applications live in the system. |
In addition, there has been a policy change regarding the year of construction: |

All upgrades are subject to Terms and Conditions and to the Specifications laid down in the Domestic Technical Standards and Specifications document and Code of Practice which has been updated to reflect the above rule change:
