Businesses in Ireland can now get up to €162,600 in grants for solar PV installations

The Irish government is expanding its solar PV support scheme to businesses of all sizes. The new scheme will provide grants of up to €162,600 for solar PV installations up to 1MW in capacity. This is significantly more than the previous limit of 6kWp.

The funds for the new scheme will come from the Temporary Business Energy Support Scheme (TBESS), which was set up to help businesses cope with the rising cost of energy.

The government says that the new scheme will help businesses to reduce their energy costs, become more resilient to price volatility, and contribute to Ireland’s climate goals.

The scheme is expected to be open for applications from mid-July 2023.
