Abbeyleix is on a path to becoming an energy efficient community, guided by the Sustainable Energy Communities programme and the Abbeyleix Climate Action Project.
The Abbeyleix Energy Masterplan will be launched by Duncan Stewart this Thursday, December 17, at 7.30pm. The launch will be streamed live on the Laois Heritage Forum Facebook Page.
Dr Niamh Shaw, Laois’s science communicator in residence, will be joined by well known architect, environmentalist and media personality Duncan Stewart who will help interpret the master plan and discuss opportunities for local climate action.
Also taking part in the discussion will be Mark Robertson of Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) with details of funding available for householders who want to make their homes more energy efficient.
