|  | Costs + grants explained Very generous government grants are available and Kokoon will assist you to make the application process as simple as possible. As with all grant schemes, the Better Energy Homes scheme is subject to continuous review with the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources with respect to programme objectives. To date over €115m has been paid in grant support towards 270,000 upgrade measures in 110,000 homes. All homeowners of dwellings built before 2006 may apply including landlords and owners of multiple properties, however they must submit a separate application form for each property. If you are a landlord or a management company considering an entire building upgrade, please contact SEAI before applying online for the grant.

*Cash Grants are set value unless expenditure is below the set value, in which case the actual expenditure will be reimbursed. **A Building Energy Rating (BER) is an integral part of all grant applications under the Better Energy Homes scheme, whereby homeowners must undertake a BER on their home after grant aided works have been completed. A homeowner is entitled to BER funding of €50 once per home. This funding will be applied to your grant application automatically provided you have never applied previously for BER funding. You will be informed during the online grant application process if BER funding is available for your home or as part of your Letter of Grant Offer if you have applied through the post. It is advisable that you apply for and undertake all planned grant aided works at the same time to minimise the costs of multiple BER assessments. *** From December 8th 2011 internal and external wall insulation grants will no longer be one single amount, but rather be based upon the house type. Please note the minimum grant amount for the ﬁrst application must be €400. A BER grant, where applicable, does not count towards the €400 minimum. Useful links.
