Retrofitting Schemes: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland
Mr. Brian O'Mahony:
In terms of the housing stock in Ireland, there are approximately 1.5 million homes in the country. Almost 1 million homes have ratings under the building energy regulation, BER, scheme. We are able to draw conclusions as to the building stock across the wider country. About 162,000 homes that are suitable have not had their cavity walls filled, that is, the shallow measure mentioned.
