Grant values for heat pump systems

The Heat Pump System grant has been expanded and is now made up of a bundle of three grants. Each individual grant offers a fixed value. The total grant value for a Heat Pump System is up to €12,500 (depending on the dwelling type). The €12,500 is made up of the following grants:

  • Up to €6,500 for the Heat Pump System
  • Up to €2,000 for upgrade works, where required, to Central Heating components i.e. new radiators or underfloor heating
  • A €4,000 Renewable Heat Bonus grant. Homeowners who are swapping out their existing oil/gas boiler, solid fuel heating system or electric storage heating system with a Heat Pump are eligible for this.

Please see the ‘Understand how to claim your grant’ section below for details on eligibility for this bundle grant and how to apply for it. If you already have a grant application in the system you will be asked to demonstrate eligibility for the three grant amounts.

Homeowners can apply for a Better Energy Homes grant to replace an existing Heat Pump where the in-situ Heat Pump has not previously been grant aided under any SEAI domestic grant schemes. The maximum grant this cohort of Homeowners can avail of for a replacement heat pump system is €6,500 (€4,500 for apartments). This cohort will not be eligible to avail of the Renewable Heat Bonus grant (€4,000) or the Central Heating grant (€2,000) as they are not decarbonising their existing heating system and should have a heat pump compatible heat distribution system already installed, respectively.
