EV Chargers
According to the SEAI, in September 2021 there were a total of 41,000 electric vehicles, including plug-in hybrids on the roads of Ireland.
The Irish Government are currently targeting to have 936,000 electric vehicles on Irish roads by 2030. This will be equivalent to one third of the current 2.8 million vehicles using Irish roads.
The Climate Action Plan published in June 2019 proposes that there should be additional incentives in place to help propel the transition to electric vehicles from petrol and diesel combustion vehicles. Many incentive ideas were proposed including a possible car scrappage scheme to replace the current EV grant scheme. The action plan notes Ireland should have a charging network capable of charging 800,000 EV’s by 2030.
The SEAI offers an Electric Vehicle Home Charger Grant where home owners can claim up to €600 towards the purchase and installation of an electric home charger unit.
