Irish consumers urged to claim €2,100 SEAI solar grant before it’s too late

PV Generation are Ireland’s longest established solar installers, and have completed thousands of projects across a range of sectors including domestic, commercial and agricultural.

PV Generation have been installing solar PV systems across Ireland since 2015. As they approach ten years in business, the Irish owned solar installer is urging consumers to claim the €2,100 SEAI solar grant before it’s too late.

The first phase of the Micro-generation Support Scheme was launched in December 2021, offering grants for Solar PV panels on domestic houses. In 2022, the maximum grant available was €2,400.

In December 2023, it was announced that the grant would be reduced annually by €300 until 2028. In January 2024, the grant was reduced as forecasted to €2,100 and is on track to being reduced to €1,800 for January 2025.

This means the time for solar is now. PV Generation are urging consumers to get in touch with them to apply for the domestic solar grant before 2025.

If you register for the grant with the support of PV Generation before 2025, this automatically holds your grant of €2,100 for up to eight months.

Why choose PV Generation as your solar installer? As one of Ireland’s longest established solar installers, they’ve completed thousands of projects across a range of sectors including domestic, commercial and agricultural.

With grant values ever decreasing, time is of the essence; now is the time for solar.
