The National Retrofitting Conference is underway here in Dunboyne, where expert panellists are discussing retrofitting Ireland's homes and public buildings #RetrofittingIreland

[Energy Ireland @energyireland]

He says that there is a challenge in the perception of retrofits and one-stop shops, which can be overcome by ensuring equality and equity between those who pay and beneficiaries, as well as derisking investment and minimising the cost of low-carbon infrastructure where possible

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. RT if you agree 🌳
