Alternative Energy Ireland, Common Questions
Is Alternative Energy Ireland SEAI-registered?
Yes. Alternative Energy Ireland appears on the official SEAI registered contractor database for solar thermal installation in Dublin, which is what allows them to carry out grant-eligible installations and process your SEAI grant application.
How do I get a quote from Alternative Energy Ireland?
Contact Alternative Energy Ireland directly using the phone number on this page. Nothing goes through us, there is no booking fee, and your details are not passed to anyone else or sold on.
What areas does Alternative Energy Ireland cover?
Alternative Energy Ireland is based in Dublin and takes work across the county, including Dublin city centre, Finglas, Clontarf, Rathfarnham, Tallaght, Blanchardstown, Swords, Malahide, Dún Laoghaire and Bray. Most installers cover their whole county rather than one town, so it is worth confirming your own address when you call.
Do I need to use an installer based in Dublin?
No. SEAI registration is national rather than county by county, so a contractor listed under a neighbouring county can quote for your home and handle the grant the same way. Getting two or three quotes is the only reliable way to see what the work should cost.
Does Alternative Energy Ireland only do solar thermal installation?
On the SEAI register they are listed for solar thermal installation. They may well do other work, but solar thermal installation is the measure their registration covers, so it is the one they can process a grant for.
Should anything be done before the installation?
Insulation comes first on any home energy upgrade. A well-sealed house needs a smaller system and runs at a lower cost, and attic and wall insulation carry SEAI grants of their own. Ask about the fabric of the house when you speak to Alternative Energy Ireland.
The Other Trades a Dublin Retrofit Needs
A renewable heating upgrade rarely happens on its own, and the order the work goes in decides what it costs. These are SEAI-registered trades covering Dublin on our sister sites, each one worth lining up before the heating work starts rather than after.
- While the scaffolding is up Roofers in Dublin If external wall insulation is going on, the scaffolding is already up and paid for. That is the cheapest time to deal with the roof, and solar panels want a sound roof under them.
- Alongside the installation Plumbers and gas installers in Dublin Taking out an old oil or gas boiler, reworking the heating circuit and fitting the hot water cylinder is a registered plumber’s job, and a heat pump needs an RGI plumber to commission it.
This Installer Can Process Your SEAI Grant
Alternative Energy Ireland is registered with SEAI, which means they can manage your grant application as part of the installation process. The SEAI heat pump grant covers up to €12,500 (as of July 2026) of the installation cost. You pay the net amount after the grant is deducted, and your installer handles the paperwork.
