Written Answers. - House Insulation Grants.
There are no grants available from my Department specifically for the purpose of insulating houses.
Many effective measures to improve energy efficiency in houses can be achieved at negative or zero equivalent annual cost to the householder. The national climate change strategy, recently adopted by the Government, provides for intensification of educational and awareness programmes being undertaken by the Irish Energy Centre to promote these options and to fill the existing information gap for consumers.
