Can You Combine SEAI Grants for Your Home?

Combining Grants Through the One Stop Shop

If you are planning multiple upgrades, the One Stop Shop pathway is designed to combine grants under one coordinated plan.

This route typically includes measures such as insulation, heating upgrades, ventilation and solar — all structured around improving the overall performance of your home.

A Home Energy Assessment is required first. That assessment creates a tailored upgrade roadmap and determines which grants can be combined correctly.

Instead of applying separately for each measure, everything is planned, managed and delivered as one project. Grants are calculated together, processed together and deducted at source.

For homeowners aiming for a significant BER improvement, this is often the most structured and efficient way to combine supports.

Combining Grants Through Individual Applications

It is also possible to complete more than one upgrade using the individual grant route.

For example, you may install Solar PV now and apply for attic insulation later. Each measure is treated as a separate application.

However, this route does not link upgrades into a single strategy. There is no whole-home assessment guiding the order of works, and grants are not optimised as part of a coordinated plan.

For homeowners upgrading gradually, this can work well. For those aiming to significantly improve their BER rating, it may limit the overall impact.

Can You Combine Solar with a One Stop Shop Upgrade?

Yes. Solar PV can form part of a One Stop Shop project when it aligns with the assessment plan.

The key difference is structure. Under the One Stop Shop model, solar becomes part of a broader energy strategy. Under the individual route, it stands alone.
