Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 31 January 2023
181. Deputy Patrick Costello asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications the number of homes in Dublin south central that have applied for the fully-funded energy upgrade in the past two years; and the number of homes that have been upgraded. [4351/23]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe 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 information sought is not available because SEAI does not compile data on a parliamentary constituency basis. However, SEAI have informed me that the total number of fully funded energy upgrades completed in County Dublin in the past two years under the Warmer Homes Scheme is 2,061.
