Better Energy: Warmer Homes delivers a range of energy efficiency measures to households that are vulnerable to energy poverty. The scheme is managed by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) and delivered through a range of Community Based Organisations, augmented by a panel of private contractors in order to ensure national coverage.

The SEAI is currently in the process of appointing a contractor panel for the delivery of the Better Energy Programme. This is subject to EU tendering procedures and it is expected that the panel will be in place and operational during the second quarter of 2012. My Department is advised that the person in question is on the waiting list and once the panel is appointed, the application will be dealt with in rotation.

Queries in relation to individual applications are an operational matter for the SEAI and a dedicated hot line can be reached at 1800 250 204. In addition, the SEAI has established a specific email address for queries from Oireachtas members, which can be sent to oireachtas@seai.ie and will be dealt with promptly.
