Reduce Costs, Reduce your Carbon Footprint Over a 10 year period EcoMerit Members reduced their Carbon Emissions by an average of over 60% (>9% annually) resulting in thousands of tonnes of CO₂eq saved over the last 10 years across EcoMerit sites.

At the same time EcoMerit Members achieved average annual cost savings of €10,000 in their first year of membership alone, with more savings identified over time.

Good for the Environment = Good for Business

We are truly proud of the Performance Record of the EcoMerit Community, and believe it shows what’s possible for Ireland as a whole.

“Dunamaise Arts Centre achieved EcoMerit environmental certification in 2010 and the resulting guidance and support has been invaluable for our sustainability journey. To date we have reduced our energy carbon footprint by a little more than half, and our water usage by two thirds. A major factor in our success story was EcoMerit’s ability to win several SEAI grants for us. We continue our journey with EcoMerit as our valued sustainability partner.“
