We’ve helped numerous farms across the county make the transition, and with TAMS 3(Targeted Agricultural Modernisation Scheme) grants available, it’s now more affordable than ever to invest in renewable energy. Our experienced, local team will guide you through the grant process and ensure a high-quality installation that meets your farm’s specific needs.

tams 3 Grant: Empowering Cork Farmers with Solar Energy

The Targeted Agricultural Modernisation Scheme (TAMS 3) offers substantial financial support to farmers aiming to adopt renewable energy solutions. Under this scheme, farmers can receive up to 60% grant aid—with a maximum investment ceiling of €90,000—for the installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, including panels, inverters, and battery storage . This initiative not only reduces energy costs but also enhances sustainability and energy independence on farms. By generating their own electricity, farmers can significantly lower their carbon footprint and protect themselves against future energy price increases .
