Your Independent Sustainable Energy Partners

TIPPERARY ENERGY AGENCY - Your Independent Sustainable Energy Partners

What we do Tipperary Energy Agency was established in 1998 by the Tipperary Local Authorities and the then Tipperary Institute as an independent not-for-profit limited company. Our goal is to support sustainable energy use in all sectors. Our team of experts are committed to providing a comprehensive range of energy services to achieve this goal. We have the technical expertise, contacts and ability to access funding that drives sustainable energy projects to succeed.

We enable local authorities, communities and businesses to deliver renewable energy projects and become more energy efficient. Our range of services includes strategic energy management advice, energy project management and energy audits. We have led major housing retrofit schemes, pioneering community wind farm developments and numerous successful biomass projects. We strive to implement viable sustainable energy solutions that will reduce costs and energy use.

Our not-for-profit model enables us to provide cost effective professional services at a local and national level. We collaborate with Third Level Institutions on EU research and projects and have successfully completed over 25 European demonstration projects. These projects have focussed on areas such as Renewable Energy, Sustainable Transport, Building Energy Performance and Bioenergy. This international project experience has helped us develop our skills and expertise even further, while at the same time showcasing our successful renewable energy projects and experience.

Our Approach>> To partner with organisations to provide a scalable,

value added service that enables long term energy cost reduction.

>> To build business cases based on client focused research and analysis.

>> To deliver clear decision paths to integrate energy efficiency and renewable energy as part of an energy reduction strategy.

>> To remain independent and cost effective.
