How much is the SEAI home EV charger grant in Ireland?

The short answer

The SEAI home charger grant is up to €300 toward installing a domestic EV charge point at your home. A separate grant of up to €600 covers shared chargers at apartment blocks — the €600 figure is the apartment scheme, not the home one. You apply through SEAI and use a registered electrical contractor.

SEAI offers up to €300 toward the cost of buying and installing a home EV charge point for a house with off-street parking. This is distinct from the apartment/shared-parking grant of up to €600, which covers communal chargers in multi-unit developments — the two are often confused. You apply to SEAI and must use a registered electrical installer; the grant helps offset, but does not fully cover, typical installation costs.
