Commercial Grants

SolarCo works closely with the Tipperary Energy Agency and The 3 Counties Energy Agency to help our commercial clients obtain Government support via the Better Energy Communities scheme.

Better Energy Communities is the SEAI national retrofit initiative with grant support of up to €28 million each year, to achieve better energy efficiency in Irish communities. The grant aims to deliver energy savings to homeowners, communities, and private sector organisations.

All projects should be community oriented with a cross-sectoral approach, and you must show that you can sustainably finance the proposed project.G
