In Ireland, whether a charger can sit behind a grant claim is decided by the Irish scheme’s current eligibility list, published by its energy authority. As of October 2026, that text — confirmed through your Irish importer or partner, against the exact model — is the only safe basis for a supplier’s promise. UK lists are a different state’s schemes and carry no standing in Ireland.
Key Takeaways
- Irish grant eligibility is decided by the Irish authority’s current list and requirements — UK lists have no standing in Ireland.
- Eligibility has four layers — model, applicant, installation, paperwork — all read from the current scheme text, never from memory.
- The confirmation runs through your Irish importer or partner, in writing, against the exact model you ship.
- EVDANCE claims no Irish eligibility for any model; we supply the exact-model file so your partner can check it.
A Different State, a Different List
Ireland runs its own support schemes through its own authority, and an eligibility list is a national instrument, naming the models, applicants and conditions a scheme will accept. A model accepted under a UK scheme — on the OZEV charger list or inside a Workplace Charging Scheme project — has passed a UK process. Nothing transfers across the border: the scheme, the applicant conditions and the claim route are all Irish here. Even the product side runs on a different track — Ireland is an EU market, so the model’s conformity file is the European one described in our explainer on EV charger certifications, not the GB route.
Eligibility also has more than one layer, and suppliers usually check only the first. The model list is one layer. Who may apply, and for which premises, is a second. What the installation must satisfy, and who may carry it out, is a third. The claim’s paperwork and sequence are a fourth. All four live in the scheme’s current requirements, and all are the authority’s to revise — which is why this article states none of them. The consumer-facing picture sits in our guide to the EV charger grant in Ireland; what follows is the supplier’s discipline behind it.
The Irish Confirmation Sequence
| Requirement area | Irish source of truth | Who confirms it, in writing |
|---|---|---|
| Model eligibility | The authority’s current published eligibility list | Your Irish importer or partner, against the exact model you ship |
| Applicant and premises conditions | The scheme’s current published requirements | Your Irish partner, for the customer classes you actually sell to |
| Installation conditions | The scheme’s terms, with Irish electrical rules | Your Irish installation partner — the registered contractor who would do the work |
| Claim paperwork and sequence | The scheme’s current claim guidance | Your Irish partner, before any grant-based price is quoted |
| Product documentation | The manufacturer’s file for the exact model | The manufacturer, at quotation stage |
What to Ask Your Irish Partner
- Is this exact model, as we ship it, on the current list — and can you show me the dated page?
- Which of our target customers and premises does the scheme cover?
- What must the installation satisfy, and who may carry out the work?
- When the list or terms change, how do we hear — and who re-checks live quotes?

EVDANCE claims no Irish grant eligibility for any model; the current list decides, re-read at each quote date. Start via the reseller and distributor programme or contact us.
Frequently Asked Questions
Our charger is on a UK approved list. Does that help in Ireland?
No. UK lists are instruments of UK schemes and have no standing in the Irish scheme. The model must be checked against the Irish authority’s current published list, in the exact variant you ship — a separate check, with a separate answer.
Can we quote the Irish grant amount in our installed prices?
Only from the scheme’s current text, checked on the day you quote. This article states no amount, deliberately: amounts and conditions are the scheme’s to revise, and a figure carried over from an older quote — or another country’s scheme — is how suppliers end up funding the difference.
Who confirms a model’s position on the Irish list?
The current published list itself is the evidence, and your Irish importer or partner confirms the reading in writing. An assurance formed in another market is not evidence; the dated list page, filed with the quote, is.
