= ePositiveHome Environmental Prototype = A Prototype Cost & Energy Efficient renovation model is being created for transforming an ordinary Irish terraced house in North Dublin, currently assessed with a "G" energy rating, into a "B1+" rating fully energy efficient home.

The Project
Located in Portmarnock, North Dublin, the site represents a typical family home for the area. Most of these homes suffer from poor Building Energy Ratings. This prototype will demonstrate how these homes can be retrofitted with completely energy efficient building materials and features. All materials used for the prototype are focused on high Green accredited standards. The intention is that a flexible cost and energy efficient renovation prototype model will emerge from this that can be applied to other situations, scales and budgets, for the benefit of many. Demographically, many homes in Ireland, which are characteristically similar to the ePositiveHome, would benefit greatly from such an upgrade, in terms of comfort, running cost, health and overall value.
