The Irish Green Building Council is aiming to get all Irish homes, both new and existing, to zero carbon by 2050

The oganisation’s Chief Executive, Pat Barry, told the Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government that by moving to energy positive homes, new homes can play a part in decarbonising our electricity.

He told the committee that Ireland must ramp up funding for local authorities to renovate all their housing stock. He said this will enable homeowners to access cheaper finance for renovation and allow home buyers to benefit from reduced interest rates if they buy the greenest new homes on the market.
