Galway City Council Community Energy Efficiency Evenings
Wed, Jun 17, 2026
Galway City Council is inviting residents to a new series of Energy Efficiency Evenings taking place across the city throughout 2026. These free, community-focused events will give residents the opportunity to learn more about improving home energy performance, reducing energy bills, and discovering practical retrofit options.
The next event of the series will take place in Renmore Community Centre on Tuesday, 30th June at 6:00 pm. This open evening will feature information stands, expert talks, demonstrations of energy related technologies such as solar panels, heat pumps, and electric bicycles, guidance on available grants, and opportunities for residents to speak directly with professionals working in home energy upgrades, finance, and sustainability. Galway City Council’s Climate Action Team will also be present to share updates on city wide programmes and actions under the Local Authority Climate Action Plan.
Building on the success of similar events in recent years, including the March event in Knocknacarra, this series aims to make practical, accessible, and trusted information available to communities across Galway. Council facilitated and community centred, the series will run throughout the year in neighbourhoods across the city.
