About the Triple E

Objectives

The Triple E aims to assist Irish businesses, the public sector and individuals to reduce their carbon footprint through investing in energy efficient equipment.

Triple E also aims to promote minimum training standards amongst installers of such equipment.

 

What is it?

The Triple E is a searchable listing of energy efficient equipment and trained installers.

Triple E sets minimum criteria that products and installers are required to meet to be listed. For products, these criteria are regularly updated, and aim to ensure that only the top 10 - 15% most energy efficient products in any technology are listed. Installers must have passed up-to-date, relevant training, and, in some circumstances, approved manufacturer training as well.

Triple E incorporates several incentives, specifically:

The Accelerated Capital Allowance

(where companies can reduce their tax bill by 100% of the cost of qualifying equipment in the year of purchase)

The Electric Vehicle programme

logo Electric Vehicles

(dealers receive a payment of €5000
for each qualifying electric vehicle sold)

Microgeneration

logo Micro Generation

(a listing of small scale wind and photovoltaic devices)


 

How does it work?
Listing of products, and of installers, is driven by those selling products and services. These companies and people are able to create a Triple E account and submit products and people for inclusion. A rigorous checking system is applied to ensure the submitted products and people meet the standards that have been set.
