Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Implementation of the New National Retrofit Plan: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland

Dr. Ciaran Byrne:

It is a matter of whether we have a BER rating for the home. We have a million BERs in the database but one triggers a BER if one is renting a home, buying or upgrading. There is still a cohort who have lived in the same home for the past 39.24 years and have never obtained a BER for it. There are various levels of data. It is a matter of using technology insofar as possible and predictive analytics. This is an area that my colleagues look into. There are calls put out and funding for this kind of stuff. It is about getting the best information we can relatively simply.
