There is no standard SEAI purchase grant for the Wrightbus StreetDeck Electroliner Double Deck BEV, since M3 buses fall outside SEAI's M1 car and N1 van schemes. The relevant support is the ZEHDV scheme (Zero Emission Heavy Duty Vehicles), administered by the Department of Transport via TII — not SEAI — calculated as 30–60% of the price differential versus the diesel equivalent (rate depends on enterprise size), subject to a rolling cap of €500,000 per undertaking per budgetary year. Public operators should also explore NTA (National Transport Authority) fleet decarbonisation grants and EU Connecting Europe Facility funding. See our ZEHDV grant guide for the application process.
