Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI)

The SEAI's focus is for Ireland's energy to be clean, affordable and sustainable. To reach this, Ireland must rely less on fossil fuels, move to clean energy and create new solutions to meet our future energy needs. Leading the move to smarter and more sustainable energy use is central to what the SEAI does.

The SEAI and BERs

The SEAI runs the BER scheme in Ireland. It:

• Registers BER assessors and audits their work
• Publishes the BER Assessor Code of Practice
• Provides the DEAP software assessors use to calculate BERs for homes
• Maintains the National BER Register, where you can look up any valid BER

SEAI Home Energy Grants

The SEAI also runs Ireland's home energy grants, including grants for insulation, heat pumps and solar panels, and the One Stop Shop scheme for full home energy upgrades. Some of these grants require a BER. See BER certs for SEAI grants.
