This SEC is part of the SEAI network across Ireland which is designed to enable a better understanding of how communities use energy and how they can save energy across all sectors. The Network's core purpose is to catalyse and support a national movement of SECs operating in every part of the country. A SEC is a community in which everyone works together to develop a sustainable energy system. To do so, they aim as far as possible to be energy efficient, to use renewable energy where feasible and to develop smart energy solutions. A SEC can include all the different energy users in the community including homes, sports clubs, community centres, churches and businesses. Further information on the SEAI's SEC programme can be found at www.seai.ie/SEC/ The Energy Master Plan will need to include the following core activities: 1 An analysis of the SEC's baseline data within the 9 small area maps highlighted below using the SEA! tables to enable comparison across all SEC master plans nationally. Residential Sector Non-residential Sector Transport Sector 2 Identify existing renewable energy sources embedded within the SEC. 3 Audits Completion of 6 Energy Audits (Ashrae Level 2) for community facilities Completion of 4 Home Energy Assessments 3 Registration of Opportunities - list of potential projects for energy efficiency and renewable energy. 4 Select suitable projects for years 1, 2 and 3. Set targets against the baseline figures. 5 Allow periodic updating of the SEC energy status in order to track progress against the targets 6 Community Engagement and launch of the EMP to include a public information session; 4-page summary report; and a short video suitable for sharing on social media. The geographic area for the EMP is outlined below showing the CSO Small Area boundaries highlighted in yellow.
