SEAI Traditional Homes Pilot
The SEAI Traditional Homes Pilot is helping homeowners upgrade historic and pre-1940 buildings while protecting their architectural heritage. The scheme supports whole-house energy upgrades delivered through registered one-stop-shop providers and supervised by experienced building professionals. According to the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, these projects must consider the breathable materials and structural characteristics typical of traditional Irish buildings. Architectural practices such as Studio Negri play an important role in guiding homeowners through these sensitive upgrades. By combining conservation expertise with modern building science, architects help deliver energy improvements without compromising the original fabric of the building. Projects developed under the pilot demonstrate how historic homes can achieve better thermal performance, improved comfort, and reduced energy use while retaining their cultural and architectural value.
