Irish homes are responsible for one quarter of overall energy use and 10% of greenhouse gas emissions.
The plan is to reduce those emissions from six million tonnes in 2017 to less than four million tonnes by 2030 and to do so by retrofitting 500,000 homes.
But how is work towards those targets progressing?
Declan Meally, head of the Department for Transport and Communities at the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI), sees retrofitting as a huge transformational opportunity and he is confident the target will be met.
He says that, last year, the work was carried out on 4,000 homes, it will be 13,000 this year, and 30,000 next year, ramping up to 50,000 after that.
