183. Deputy Peter Fitzpatrick asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications the number of retrofits completed per month in County Louth under the warmer home scheme in 2022; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [46053/22]
View answerThe Better Energy Warmer Homes Scheme delivers free energy upgrades for eligible homeowners in low-income households who are most at risk of energy poverty. It is administered by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI). Since the start of the scheme in 2000, over 145,000 free upgrades have been supported by the scheme.The monthly breakdown sought in the Question is not readily available and its compilation would involve a disproportionate amount of time and resources. However, SEAI have informed me that the total number of retrofits completed in County Louth to end-August this year, under the Better Energy Warmer Homes Scheme, is 48.
