Bray Fire Station has officially been launched as Wicklow County Council’s first fully decarbonised building by Cathaoirleach Cllr. Paul O’Brien alongside Taoiseach Simon Harris.
Wicklow County Council identified Bray Fire Station as one of the largest fossil fuel users in their building stock.
Developing on energy measures completed over the previous 3 years, the Energy Office proposed a window replacement, new appliance bay doors and a complete overhaul of the heating system including a renewable air to water heat pump, new radiators and pipework.
Creating Wicklow Count Council’s first fully decarbonised building removed the requirement for natural gas heating.
The project will reduce the energy use in Bray Fire Station by 60%, while also reducing direct carbon emissions by 100%.
The measures carried out have improved the building energy rating from E1 to B1.
