Calculate your repayments
Monthly repayment
€158.23/month
Illustration calculated at a 6.95% fixed interest rate over 5 years, with a €150 completion fee included in the total repayable. Representative APR is 7.85%. Early repayment charges may apply. Terms, rates and approval are subject to lending criteria.
Finance the balance, not the whole system
Your SEAI grant reduces the price before finance is worked out. A green loan through Finance Ireland can cover the remaining eligible cost, so you borrow only what you need.
