Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection

Energy Poverty: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Se?n Armstrong:

Since 2022 all new housing with its own parking space is required to install EV charging infrastructure to facilitate the installation of EV charging points. All existing buildings with more than ten parking spaces undergoing major renovation where more than 25% of the surface area of the building is renovated are required to install EV charging infrastructure. A new energy performance of buildings directive has recently been agreed and that also sets requirements for member states to further reduce the barriers to installing EV charging points in existing buildings.
