SEAI (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland)

Supports Irish energy efficiency, renewable energy, and climate action projects for homes, businesses, and communities.

SEAI (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland) is Ireland's national sustainable energy authority, a statutory body under the Sustainable Energy Act 2002 and a child of the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications. It works from offices in Dublin, Dundalk, Cork, and Sligo and sits at the centre of Ireland's public energy-efficiency delivery.

Its grant work spans home retrofits, business energy efficiency, community energy upgrades, EV support, and research funding. The named programmes in this batch are the National Energy RD&D Funding Programme, EXEED Grant Scheme, Business Energy Upgrades, Community Grant, and Energise Fellowship Programme, with delivery routed through registered contractors, One Stop Shops, and community co-ordinators in most cases.

That model suits households, companies, communities, and researchers that can plug into a defined delivery channel and meet energy-performance criteria. The sample grants show both open and rolling routes, including the 2026 Open Call for RD&D and rolling calls for EXEED and the Community Grant, which points to a programme family that rewards readiness and compliance as much as project ambition.
