The L Category Grant Scheme for electric motorcycles is a targeted initiative offering financial support towards the purchase of new electric motorcycles.

Administered by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) and funded by the Department of Transport and Zero Emission Vehicles Ireland (ZEVI), the scheme offers grants ranging from €500 to €1,000 for various vehicle categories, including:

€500 for L1e - B light two-wheel powered vehicles (maximum speed of 45km/h)
€1,000 for L3e two-wheel motorcycles capable of exceeding 45km/h
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

Electric bicycles are a great option for those in apartments who can't charge their cars at home...

All great fun until the apartment block catches fire and DFB don't have a long enough ladder to put it out.
