Irish Revenue has confirmed today that claims can now be made under the extended Temporary Business Energy Support Scheme for the period 1 May to 31 July 2023. Therefore the scheme has been extended to 31 July 2023.
Claims relating to the extended periods will automatically be assessed based on the 30% energy cost threshold and the relief due will be calculated based on 50% of the eligible energy costs incurred by the business. A monthly cap of €15,000 per trade (subject to an overall monthly cap of €45,000) will also be automatically applied to these claims.
Eligible businesses that have not yet registered for the TBESS, or have not yet started or fully completed the claim process for any claim periods are encouraged to do so now, as the time limit for making a claim has also been extended to 30 September 2023 in respect of all claim periods.
The TBESS claim portal can be accessed via the e-Repayments system in Revenue’s Online Service (ROS).
