There's no business version of the €300 home charger grant: SEAI only approves it where the beneficiary is a private individual (SEAI). For a business, the support for chargers is tax relief. The accelerated capital allowance for energy-efficient equipment runs to 31 December 2030 (Revenue eBrief 028/26), and SEAI publishes criteria for EV charging equipment under it (SEAI).
Key points
If you park your work car at home, the €300 home charger grant is the scheme to use, on the same terms as anyone else: private off-street parking inside the boundary, a charger from SEAI's register, a Safe Electric registered electrician, and a Letter of Offer before any work (SEAI). SEAI says the grant is only approved where the beneficiary is a private individual, and companies can apply as third parties on a resident's behalf.
Company cars were brought into the home grant in June 2021, for electric cars owned or leased for an employee and parked overnight at the employee's home. Today SEAI's page says residents can apply whether or not they own an EV.
On tax, SEAI's business page says there is currently no benefit-in-kind on home charger installations or charging (SEAI). Ask your accountant how that applies to your own arrangement.
There's no SEAI grant towards a workplace charger for a private business. The support is through tax:
Allowances reduce taxable profit; they aren't a payment. Whether you can use one depends on your profits and structure, so talk to your accountant before you choose a charger, and check the model is on the Triple E register.
SEAI also offers businesses up to €8,000 towards an EV fleet assessment, for firms planning to electrify some or all of an existing fleet (SEAI).
Build-to-rent management companies can apply for SEAI's apartment charging grant at 60% of eligible costs, and private and commercial landlords can apply only for a bulk installation of chargers (SEAI). See apartments, renters and landlords.
The National Transport Authority's eSPSV26 scheme opened on 25 February 2026 with €7 million for owners of small public service vehicles buying electric vehicles, on a first come, first served basis (National Transport Authority). It is a grant towards the car. The NTA's scheme doesn't cover chargers, and there's no separate charger grant for taxi drivers.
So a taxi driver who parks at home off the road uses the €300 SEAI home charger grant, like any resident. If you drive long shifts, the charging speed matters more than for most homes: see 3-phase chargers for what 11 kW and 22 kW need, and what ESB Networks charges to upgrade a supply.
Do not let anyone start work before the start date on your Letter of Offer. SEAI treats spending before that date as ineligible, and work done before an offer is issued doesn't qualify at all.
Tell us where you are. We come back with a fixed written price, and the invoice can be made out the way your accountant needs it.
No cost, no obligation. We price the job and introduce you to a Safe Electric registered electrical contractor. We are not an electrical contractor ourselves.
Not a cash grant for a private business's own premises that we could find. The €300 SEAI home grant is only approved where the beneficiary is a private individual. Businesses can use accelerated capital allowances on qualifying equipment, extended to 31 December 2030 (Revenue eBrief 028/26).
Yes, as a private individual charging at home, on the same terms as anyone else: private off-street parking, a registered charger and electrician, and a Letter of Offer before any work.
SEAI's business page says there is currently no BIK on home charger installations or charging. Check how it applies to you with your accountant.
Not at the moment. The NTA's eSPSV26 scheme, which opened on 25 February 2026 with €7 million, funds electric vehicles for taxi, hackney and limousine owners. A taxi driver charging at home uses the €300 SEAI home grant.
SEAI publishes eligibility criteria for EV charging equipment for the ACA and Triple E register. The equipment must be on the Triple E register, and SEAI's table sets a €1,000 minimum spend for the category.
