📣🔋Over 220 Sports Clubs Eligible for new EV Charge Points Right across the island of Ireland, over 220 sports clubs are eligible to apply for €15m in funding to install new EV Chargers on their grounds for their members and visitors. From Coleraine to Cork, 227 sports clubs - ranging from golf to GAA - have been deemed eligible to progress to the delivery phase of the Shared Island Sports Club EV Charging Infrastructure Scheme. The Scheme is funded through the Government’s Shared Island Initiative and ZEVI infrastructure funding. It covers the cost of installing electric vehicle charge points at sports club facilities affiliated to recognised national governing bodies. In total, 48 clubs from across Northern Ireland and 179 from Ireland are now eligible to move to the next stage in the process. Eligible clubs will be able to draw down funding for the installation of electric vehicle charging, subject to reaching agreement with a Charge Point operator from a pre-approved panel. This should see an important ramping up of public EV charging in local communities across the island and offer the potential for clubs to generate income from those more commercially attractive sites. The Scheme received 295 applications in total. Of these, 227 met qualifying and suitability criteria and are now eligible to apply for the final phase of the scheme. The main reasons some applications were unsuccessful were not satisfying some minimum requirements including - no license submitted to facilitate site visits, no 3-phase electricity and/or no toilet facilities on site or within 500m. A full list of the eligible LIMERICK sports clubs is as follows: Limerick Golf Club Munster Rugby - Limerick Na Piarsaigh GAA Club Ballyneety Golf Club Mungret Regional FC St Kierans GAA Newcastle West GAA South Liberties GAA Old Crescent RFC Young Munster RFC Garryowen FC Fr. Caseys GAA Club Broadford United AFC
