These grants are designed to incentivise the purchase of electric vehicles (EVs) and the installation of EV chargers.<\/span>\n<p>With the SEAI (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland) grants, individuals and businesses can access financial assistance for both EVs and chargers, helping to accelerate Ireland\u2019s shift to a greener, more sustainable transportation system.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.myenergi.com\/ie\/book-an-installation\/find-an-installer\/?product_type=glo\" target=\"_self\" class=\"mt-3 mr-2 btn  !bg-green !border-green !text-greydark \">Apply for your SEAI Grant &#8211; Get an Installation Quote<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"w-full w-full load-hidden flex flex-wrap flex-col column column-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"w-full first-mt-0 last-mb-0 grow content-wrapper relative sm:px-10 pb-7 xl:pl-20 xl:pr-32 lg:py-16 pt-9 pb-8 md:pb-[62px] lg:pt-14 md:pt-16 sm:bg-grey-19 rounded-b-2.5xl !rounded-2.5xl \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Up to \u20ac3,500 towards purchase of new battery electric vehicles (BEVs) <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">as of July 2023<\/span>.

However, from 2024, the Benefit-in-Kind relief will taper, with the original market value of the electric vehicle being reduced by \u20ac20,000 for BIK purposes.

Governments worldwide are working towards achieving net-zero carbon targets, aiming to slow global warming, alongside other major benefits. In Ireland, this shift also contributes to boosting the country&#8217;s electric car manufacturing and design sectors, creating new skills and jobs, and improving public health through cleaner air in towns and cities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">The Irish Government encourages switching to electric vehicles by offering financial support to assist in the process. Early adopters benefit from greater financial savings, as government grants tend to decrease over time as infrastructure and knowledge improve. The SEAI electric car grant scheme is designed to help with the purchase of electric cars and the installation of home chargers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">As of 2024, here are the key grants available:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">A grant of up to \u20ac3,500 is available for privately purchased new battery electric vehicles (BEVs), depending on the list price.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">BEVs with a price between \u20ac14,000 and \u20ac60,000 are eligible for the full \u20ac3,500 grant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">A grant of up to \u20ac300 for the installation of a home charger for new and second-hand BEVs or plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Up to \u20ac5,000 relief on Vehicle Registration Tax (VRT) for new battery electric vehicles (BEVs).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">The motor tax for battery electric vehicles (BEVs) remains \u20ac120 per annum.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:
