Traditional Homes Energy Upgrade Pilot

Homeowners of traditionally built homes can now apply for grant support through a pilot scheme. The scheme uses the SEAI’s ‘One Stop Shop’ service. This work will be delivered through registered One Stop Shops, supported by a homeowner-appointed Traditional Building Professional engaged from the outset of the project.

Whether your home is a stone-built cottage, a heritage home, or constructed before modern building standards, you can receive home energy grants to support energy upgrades for your home.

The pilot will provide tailored solutions for your traditional home and the upgrade options include all the technologies available to modern homes; roof insulation, wall insulation, floor insulation, windows & doors, ventilation, renewable heating (heat pumps), solar thermal, solar PV.

To qualify for grant support, you must complete a whole house energy upgrade and your home must reach a minimum B2 building energy rating after the upgrades.
