What this page does not decide
grantsolar introduces homeowners to an installer. We do not install solar panels and we do not approve grants. The solar PV grant is for the homeowner. If you rent, the owner would need to make the enquiry. The published grant maxima are separate from this list.
An enquiry is not an application to SEAI. SEAI decides whether a grant is paid.
