Energia worked with Carrig Brewing Company to upgrade its refrigeration
Carrig Brewing Company commented, “We’ve been customers of Energia for several years and after they carried out an energy audit of our operations, we realised that for a relatively small investment we could significantly cut our energy bill. The upgrade work was very smooth and had no impact on our operations.”
Lorraine Whyte, Energy Services, Energia commented, “Carrig Brewing Company is following a wide range of Energia customers by making its operations more energy efficient. By working with us they can save significant amounts of money on their energy bills and reduce their carbon footprint. Full details are available on

“Through the scheme we’re delighted to be supporting the national upgrade programme ‘Better Energy’ and the National Climate Change Strategy. Since our initiative began Energia has supported over 700 projects around Ireland, which has saved them over €10 million a year on their electricity bills. Together we have saved 93,000,000 kWh per year and prevented 43 million tonnes of carbon being needlessly released into our environment.”
“Our scheme encourages companies to see the importance of investing in their long term energy usage. The more energy you save, the larger the financial contribution we will offer you. The aim of the grant is to shorten the financial payback period of your investment; our contribution covers on average 30% of the project total cost.
