BER audits up 17% in third quarter

The number of Building Energy Rating (BER) audits carried out across the country in the third quarter of the year was 17% higher than the same period of last year, according to the latest data from the CSO.

The latest report for the period from July 1st to September 30th 2023 found that dwellings constructed between 2015-2019 and 2020-2023 had a higher proportion of A ratings compared with earlier periods, with rates of 95% and 99% respectively.

The highest proportion of A ratings were in counties Kildare (25%), Meath (22%), and Dublin County (22%), while the lowest was in Leitrim (3%). Among Dublin postal districts, the highest proportions of A rated dwellings were in Dublin 18 (34%) and Dublin 13 (26%), while the highest proportion of G ratings were in Dublin 6 (14%).

Electricity was the main space heating fuel for 89% of audited dwellings where construction was completed from January 2020 to September 2023.

Commenting on the release Kevin Hunt, Statistician in the Environment and Climate Division, said: "There were 39,400 Building Energy Rating (BER) audits reported in Q3 2023 compared with 33,810 in Q3 2022, an increase of 17%. The number of BER audits completed in July 2023 was 21% higher than July 2022. August 2023 numbers were 17% greater than August 2022. The number of BER audits increased by 12% in September 2023 compared with September 2022. During the period of January 2009 to September 2023, 1.38 million BER audits were undertaken.”
