Government Funds for Farms
Farms can fund solar two ways, and you take one or the other.
TAMS III is run by the Department of Agriculture and covers 60% of your eligible investment, with its own ring-fenced ceiling of €90,000, so up to €54,000 back. Applications open in tranches announced by the Department.
SEAI’s Non-Domestic Microgen Grant currently pays 45% of eligible costs, up to €325,200, on systems to 1,000 kWp. Applications close on 6 July 2027, and SEAI pays after installation.
You cannot claim both on the same installation. TAMS returns more on most farm rooftops. A large installation can be worth more under the SEAI grant, because TAMS stops counting investment above €90,000. We work out which one suits your system and handle the paperwork either way.
