The Renewable Heat Deployment Program aims to increase the installation of renewable heating systems such as solar panels in commercial, industrial, public and community premises.

This will in turn cut carbon emissions and help the Irish Government move away from over-reliance on fossil fuels.

Coupled with their initiatives of implementing residential solar water heaters via grants as well, this will hopefully increase consumer awareness and heighten confidence in heating from renewable sources.

Under the Renewable Heat Deployment Program grants of up to 30% of the cost of your commercial solar panels is available.

However, please keep in mind that grant applications must be submitted before the solar panels is purchased. Payment will be made directly to you once the installation and commissioning of the solar panels is complete and payment for the system has been made in full.

For more information go to the SEI's commercial and business Irish solar power grants page.
