**A Building Energy Rating (BER) is an integral part of all grant applications under the individual home energy upgrade grants (Better Energy Homes), whereby homeowners must undertake a BER on their home after insulation 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 insulation grant application automatically, provided you have never applied previously for BER funding. You will be informed during the online insulation 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.
Please note the minimum insulation grant amount for the first application must be €700. A BER grant, where applicable, does not count towards the €700 minimum. In the instance where a Contractor is completing works within his own home then only the cost of materials will be deemed qualifying expenditure. Grants must be in place before any work can begin, once the measures are completed and the contractor has been paid in full by the homeowner, then the grant forms are then completed by the Contractor then the Ber Assessor (This is organised by the Homeowner after the works)
