It is not possible to give a detailed breakdown of the average operating cost of each individual barracks due to the extensive effort involved in compiling the information required. However the Defence Forces spent approximately €8.5m in 2015 on utilities such as electricity, gas, heating oil, water and waste disposal across 15 military installations and training areas. Another €7.3m was spent in 2015 on building maintenance.
