How can PV affect the Building Energy Rating (BER) of my home?
Market research in the UK has shown that properties with a good energy rating and using renewable energy sources achieve better market value. With the recent introduction of the Building Energy Rating Scheme by the Irish government, this trend is without a doubt going to be reinforced. With current trends in the Irish property market the installation of renewable energy and having a good BER rating may be the deciding factor between one house and the next.
