Application and Evaluation Process

An application should be made by the intended owner of the heating system and sent to:

Miscanthus Pilot Demonstration Programme
Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland
Wilton Park House
Wilton Place
Dublin 2

Once a completed application form has been received it will be evaluated by SEAI. Where possible, applications should be submitted electronically. The indicative decision time from the receipt of a complete application form is four to six weeks. If approved, a Grant Agreement will be issued to the applicant. The offer will only be validated upon the applicant indicating acceptance of offer by returning a signed copy of the Grant Agreement to SEAI, which must be received within 30 days of date of issue.

The grant offer will automatically lapse after the project completion date, unless a later date is agreed with SEAI. However, it is a requirement that boilers supported under the Miscanthus Pilot Demonstration Programme must be commissioned by the 30th November 2011.
