Solar PV Panels
Generate your own electricity and dramatically cut your energy bills with Solar PV. Solar panels can save you between €200–€300 a year on your domestic electricity bill.
Heat Pumps
Heat pumps offer a cleaner, more efficient alternative to oil or gas heating. By replacing your existing system, you can significantly reduce heating costs, lower energy consumption, and cut greenhouse gas emissions. They also enhance comfort and efficiency in your home.
Insulation
Poor insulation leads to higher heating costs and wastes energy. Upgrading your attic or roof insulation can reduce heat loss by up to 30%, while improving wall insulation (cavity, internal, or external) can cut heat loss by up to 35%. These are among the most cost-effective energy upgrades for Irish homes.
Doors & Windows Upgrade
Upgrading old windows and doors can greatly improve comfort and reduce draughts in your home. Modern, energy-efficient models help cut heat loss and external noise by up to 10%, making your living space warmer and quieter.
Electric Vehicles (EVs)
Electric vehicles offer zero tailpipe emissions and much lower running costs compared to petrol or diesel cars. On average, you could save over €1,000 per year in fuel.
Home EV Chargers
Charging your electric vehicle at home is convenient and cost-efficient. Installing a home EV charger lets you power up overnight and take advantage of lower electricity rates.

Alignment to United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
Credit Union Greenify loans directly support the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities and SDG 13: Climate Action.
Through Greenify loans, credit unions promote resilient, inclusive, and sustainable urban development (SDG 11) by enabling individuals and families to adopt greener living practices and contribute to healthier, more sustainable communities.
At the same time, they advance climate action (SDG 13) by encouraging reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and supporting adaptation to climate challenges.
In this way, credit union green loans represent a practical and community-centred approach to financing the transition toward a low-carbon and sustainable future.
