The Irish Times puts a heat pump at 'about €15,000'; TheJournal.ie says €10,000 to €20,000

Ireland's energy minister has proposed an extra €2,000 for households that replace an old boiler with a heat pump. Three Irish outlets give three different answers on how much people will still have to pay, and two different answers on when it starts.

The offer. Minister for Energy Darragh O'Brien has proposed a €2,000 grant for scrapping an old boiler, The Irish Times and RTÉ News report. The Irish Times and TheJournal.ie say it comes on top of an existing €12,500 heat pump grant. The Irish Times puts the total at €14,500.

The bill. Each outlet prices the job differently, and that decides how generous the grant looks.

Outlet Cost of the job Start date Tone
The Irish Times about €15,000 none given; Cabinet must approve it first "a fair bit of the pain away"
TheJournal.ie €10,000 to €20,000, and insulation or windows may be needed too "expected" January 2027 households "pay the costs upfront"
RTÉ News not given not given an expert says the grant will "partially" help

Who qualifies. RTÉ News describes a grant for kerosene and oil boilers. The Irish Times says homes heated by gas, electric storage heaters, solid fuel or LPG, and homes with no central heating, also qualify. The house must have been built before 2021.

Paying first. Only TheJournal.ie says households pay first and get the money back later, so "thousands of euros are needed to begin with".

Not settled - Cabinet has not approved the scheme. The Irish Times says it will "presumably" be rubber-stamped next week. - Only one report gives the January 2027 start date. - No report quotes a household that would apply.

What this is about. The Irish government wants homes heated by oil, gas or solid fuel to switch to heat pumps. It is offering a bigger grant to get them to do it.

How it got here. Ireland's climate law was amended in 2021. It commits the state to roughly halving its greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and to reaching net zero by 2050. Home heating is one of the harder parts of that target. Much of rural Ireland is not connected to the gas network and burns heating oil. TheJournal.ie reports that around 700,000 houses use kerosene, and that most of them are larger, detached and rural.

For several years the state has paid grants for heat pumps and home insulation. The Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, the agency set up to run such schemes, pays them out. The Irish Times and TheJournal.ie both put the existing heat pump grant at €12,500. The Irish Times says the new top-up responds to large rises in fossil fuel prices, kerosene in particular.

The actors. Ireland is governed by a coalition led by Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael. It was formed in January 2025, with Micheál Martin as Taoiseach, the head of government. Darragh O'Brien of Fianna Fáil is the minister responsible for energy and climate. A new scheme needs Cabinet approval before it can open. The independent expert TheJournal.ie quotes is Paul Deane, a senior lecturer in clean energy futures at University College Cork.

What is at stake. For a household, the question is whether a heat pump becomes affordable, and whether the house needs insulation, windows or larger radiators first. For the state, Deane tells TheJournal.ie that high heating oil prices are "a huge burden on the state".

Where it stands. The minister has proposed the scheme but Cabinet has not approved it. The Irish Times says it is separate from the budget, which the government presents each autumn. None of the reports we hold says what the scheme will cost or how many homes it aims to reach.

What is being argued about

  • How much a heat pump really costs, and how much of that €14,500 covers
  • Whether households can find the money before they are paid back
  • When the scheme starts, and whether Cabinet has approved it
  • Which heating systems qualify

The bias in this coverageBias

Three different bills

The explainer uses one cost of about €15,000, which the €14,500 in grants almost matches. The expert report gives €10,000 to €20,000 and warns that insulation and windows may be needed on top. Only one report says the money has to be found up front.

2 reports giving an installation cost 1 reports saying households pay up front 2 reports quoting an independent energy expert
Scored without the mastheads. Where the two passes differ, both are kept.

An account is an optional way to support the work we do. Find out more. The grant, which is expected to be available from January 2027, is in addition to existing heat pump grants worth €12,500. Paul Deane is a senior lecturer in clean energy futures at University College Cork and has installed a heat pump in his own home. On the face of it, more funding for retrofitting is a positive move. However, individuals must pay the costs upfront and later get reimbursed, so thousands of euros are needed to begin with.

The only report that lists who qualifies: homes heated by oil, gas, storage heaters, solid fuel or LPG, or with no central heating, built before 2021. It puts the cost of a heat pump at about €15,000.
So what’s all this about a boiler scrappage scheme? Minister for Energy Darragh O’Brien has flagged a new scheme for boiler scrappage while speaking to reporters on the fringes of the UN General Assembly in New York. So can I get a free boiler? Not quite. First of all, he has to bring the scheme to Cabinet for approval – and then there’s likely to be a period of time before it gets up and running. It won’t be a free boiler either: it’s a top-up grant to an existing grant that gives people €12,500 towards the cost of installing a heat pump. So, no free boiler? No free boiler, but a cheaper boil
Framing as relief: The combined grant is set against a single cost figure. That makes the scheme look like it covers nearly all of the cost. — “So if you’re getting the full whack of €14,500, it’ll take a fair bit of the pain away.”
Cost measure: One point figure for installation, given without a source. — “The installation of a heat pump would cost about €15,000”
Approval stated as near certain: Cabinet approval is presented as a formality. Another report gives a start date of January 2027 and calls it expected. — “It’ll presumably be rubber-stamped by Cabinet next week.”
Which cost figure: Gives one cost and nets the grants against it to suggest little is left to pay. — “So if you’re getting the full whack of €14,500, it’ll take a fair bit of the pain away.”
Stated vs hedged timing: Cabinet approval is treated as a formality. — “It’ll presumably be rubber-stamped by Cabinet next week.”

Leads on an expert's view that the grant will only 'partially' reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
Boiler scrappage grant will help ease oil dependence - expert Updated / Thursday, 24 Sep 2026 11:37 Getty If approved at Cabinet, the scheme will come into effect from January 2027 (Stock image) The Government's proposed €2,000 grant to scrap kerosene and oil boilers will "partially" help to address the fundamental issue of overdependence on fossil fuels, an expert in sustainable energy has said.
