The Support Scheme for Renewable Heat (SSRH), which is administered by the SEAI, provides financial support for the adoption of renewable heating systems by commercial, industrial, agricultural, district heating and other non-domestic heat users not covered by the emissions trading system. The total number of agricultural users that completed the application process and were deemed eligible for the SSRH is 54, 11 of whom have already received payment, with 3 to shortly receive payment. It is expected that the remaining 40 applicants will join the payment cycle as they complete construction and installation over the coming months.
The breakdown by county is set out in the table below.
