Energy Efficiency
starts at home

Suitable for a homeowner or landlord who wishes to upgrade multiple elements of their property. There are significant benefits to this approach and therefore SEAI offers substantial bonus grants to encourage this option. To learn what projects this is suited to and how it works, feel free to attend our free seminars. You’ll get a general introduction to each of the grants and ask specific questions if you wish.

What is a BEC?

The BEC has all the same benefits and bonus payments as the OSS but may be more practical for many projects. The scheme eligibility criteria and financial incentives are the same, but the contractual arrangement is slightly different. If the OSS provider was carrying out all of the customers required works over a short period, the OSS grant programme is a good solution.

The BEC scheme allows the building contractor to provide the relevant paperwork/evidence to the BEC co-ordinator which will then arrange the grants for the customer. Strict quality guidelines need to be met and specialist SEAI registered contractors need to be engaged where necessary. To learn more about the BEC program call us or join a weekly online seminar.

Are you Eligible?

The BEC is available to homeowners and private landlords whose property or home meets the following criteria:

  • For houses built before 2011
  • Must achieve a BER of B2 or higher after measures
  • Measure must reduce energy consumption by >100 kWh/m2.a
  • SR 50 Needed for Heat Pumps
  • HLI (if HP being installed) must be <2.0 W/m2.K
  • If the HLI is between 2.0 – 2.3 individual fabric element backstops will apply and an Air Tightness test may be needed
  • BERs & Technical Assessments need to be current, i.e. less than 12 months from the application date.
