In a landscape of rising energy costs and a national push for clean energy, 2025 presents a rare opportunity for homeowners to invest in solar PV, and our expertise positions AEI perfectly to guide them through it.
Solar: Affordable, accessible, smart
- Exceptional value in 2025: The SEAI solar PV grant currently stands at €1,800, structured at €700 per kWp up to 2 kWp, and €200 per additional kWp, capped at 4 kWp. That means a 4 kWp system qualifies for the full €1,800 subsidy.
- But it won’t last: From 2026, the grant will decrease to €1,500, with further annual reductions projected until the scheme ends around 2029. Homeowners who wait risk losing hundreds in support.
Maximise your savings, and your impact
- VAT is at a friendly 0%: Since May 2023, VAT on solar installations has been zero-rated for private homes, further reducing upfront costs and increasing return on investment.
- Strong returns, fast payback: Even modest solar systems can pay for themselves in as little as 6-9 years, depending on usage and export arrangements. Modern systems include energy storage and smart monitoring for even greater efficiency
- Supports Ireland’s climate and energy targets: Installing solar aligns with national goals, as the country aims for steep emissions reductions and increased renewables; homeowners become part of that solution.
Why AEI leads the way
- We handle the grant for you: At AEI, we don’t just advise on the SEAI grant; we take the hassle out of it completely. We subtract the grant amount from the up-front price of your solar system and manage the entire application on your behalf. That means no waiting, no paperwork headaches, and no risk of missing out.
- Systems tailored for your needs: AEI doesn’t just install panels; we design systems optimised for efficiency, aesthetics, and real estate value. Every installation is matched to the homeowner’s usage patterns to deliver maximum savings and impact.
- Stay ahead of the curve: With the 2026 grant reduction looming, acting now locks in the full €1,800 saving. AEI’s proactive approach means homeowners enjoy maximum benefit today, while also future-proofing their home energy for tomorrow.
2025 is the ideal moment to go solar. With the €1,800 SEAI grant still available, combined with 0% VAT, your investment goes further. But time is ticking. The grant drops to €1,500 in 2026 and continues to fall. AEI has the expertise and systems knowledge to ensure clients maximise savings, simplify the process, and step into a greener future.
