In March 2015 higher grant values and bonus payments were introduced and the scheme is now available for previous applicants to get additionalworks completed.

Over 160,000 homes across Ireland have received grants through BEH to date.

The objectives of the scheme are to:
** Support homeowners in making intelligent choices to improve the energy performance of their home
** Reduce energy use, costs and greenhouse gas emissions
** Build market capacity and competence by driving contractor standards and quality
** Stimulating market innovation

The incentive is in the form of a Cash Grant. Cash grants are fixed, irrespective of home size, though where actual expenditure is lower than the grant value only the lower amount will be paid. Payment is by Electronic Funds Transfer to the applicant’s bank.
