Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to provide authorisation for TEA to engage with ESB Networks on my behalf?

Yes. If you would like TEA to communicate directly with ESB Networks regarding your project, a signed Letter of Authorisation is required.

What types of projects require ESB Networks engagement?

Common examples include Solar PV, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), EV charging infrastructure, heat pumps, renewable generation projects, and electricity supply upgrades.

Can TEA help if my project faces a grid constraint?

Yes. We can assess available options, review connection offers, and help identify practical solutions to minimise project impacts.

When should I consider grid connection requirements?

As early as possible. Early assessment helps avoid delays, unexpected costs, and design changes later in the project lifecycle.
