Gamma Labs Research Reveals Trends in Energy Efficiency of Irish Homes

Gamma Labs, the leading location intelligence technology company in Ireland, has published a comprehensive new report that sheds light on energy efficiency trends within the nation’s housing stock. Collaborating with BERWOW, a specialist in Building Energy Ratings (BER), the report analyses energy efficiency across various socioeconomic demographics, geographic locations, and property types.

The report finds a correlation between BER ratings and the socioeconomic status of homeowners. Notably, one-third (33%) of A-rated homes are concentrated in the most affluent 10% of the country, while a mere 2% of homes in the least affluent areas achieve an A rating. Moreover, over a quarter (26%) of homes in these economically disadvantaged regions are rated E or below.

In assessing energy efficiency across counties, the study identifies stark disparities. Only four counties – Cork, Kildare, Louth, and Meath – report an excess of A/B-rated homes compared to those rated E/F/G. Conversely, counties such as Clare, Leitrim, Mayo, Offaly, Roscommon, and Tipperary show a concerning trend, with more than double the number of E/F/G-rated homes compared to A/B-rated homes.

The findings also indicate that private lettings are the least energy efficient housing option in Ireland, with 86% of such properties receiving a C rating or lower; nearly half (47%) of these homes earned a D rating or worse. In contrast, newly constructed homes demonstrated higher energy efficiency, with 89% assigned an A rating and the remaining properties receiving a B rating. Overall, it is revealed that only 42% of the entire housing stock has been evaluated for a BER certification.

Another noteworthy insight uncovered by the research was the uneven distribution of kilowatt-hours per square metre of floor area (kWh/m²), which determines a property’s BER. Peaks and troughs were observed in every band at the cutoff points between ratings and were more pronounced at cutoffs which would result in a letter change in a property’s rating.

For example, there were almost three times as many properties listed with an energy requirement of 299 kWh/m² than 301kWh/m², with 300kWh/m² being the cutoff between a C and D rating. There are a wide number of popular methods to drive even small incremental changes such as the installation of additional low energy lights or a new cylinder lagging jacket.

This report is released in conjunction with Gamma’s strategic rebranding into two distinct entities. Gamma Labs aims to simplify complexity, support profitability and enable sustainability for organisations by leveraging property and neighbourhood data. Meanwhile, its Insurtech business, Gamma Risk, uses cutting edge technology and analysis to assess risk for insurance companies and related stakeholders.

As a step towards sustainability, Gamma Labs is also part of the EU’s OneClickRENO research project. This initiative aims to transition to zero-emission building standards by emphasizing the benefits of comprehensive renovations through Building Renovation Passports (BRPs).

The full report is available on www.gammalabs.ie/white-paper-ber-insights-energy-efficiency-of-irish-homes/

Commenting on these findings, Charlotte Cuffe, Chief Data Scientist at Gamma Labs, said: “Having access to such property insights is not just useful for homeowners in terms of assessing energy efficiency and retrofitting options (including grants), but also construction companies, energy providers, banks, estate agents and insurance companies. This data can provide a baseline or a benchmark from which people can look to improve their green credentials.”

Michael Hanratty, CEO of BERWOW, added: “Equipping stakeholders with data which can enhance their service offerings, lower investment risk, and empower sustainable decision-making is a crucial step in the sustainability journey

Tech Review – HiFiMan Svanar Wireless LE

Recently reviewed was the HiFiMan Svanar JR and their affordable TWS 450  so how does the more expensive offering stack up and are they worth their money..Given there is some differences in the technology here much is the same with the same feature set and operations on board but tuned differently.

Again the packaging is well presented and the same as the LE and this time around a different color case with a premium look and finish again the case is quirky but I like this and it stands out just like the earbuds themselves.

This time around the entire earbuds is not housed in plastic so how they look might might not appeal to all, they do to me as I like oddly shaped earbuds which exits from the industry standard look.

Again large earbuds with an ergonomic design that might not suit all ears due to their size however once fitted with the right tips you are good to go and they remain in place even if you are an active person.

Again there is no companion app nor no need for one with and this has been proven before with their entry level earbuds we  tested here the HiFiMan TWS800.

Another older pair we tested again with no app was the TWS-600 and shows with some brands they do not need an app to help change the EQ

The LE offer a bit more than the JR do and sound slightly better with no Himalaya R2R DAC Amp and no LDAC but the rest pretty much stays the same as does the controls on them.

Having considered this and the different price points there is still a great sound signature from the earbuds and do a great job overall there is another version higher again called the SVANAR Wireless which incorporates all the tech from the JR and LE.

Highs lows and mids all good decent volume no lag latency or tinny sound and you are pretty much centered in the audio. Really crisp and clear instruments and overall a great audio experience as you would expect, I do feel people will be a bit lot on the pricing between the models but get it if you are after a particular signature sound overall, calls where fine for me during testing and the ANC would not be the best in the game but they are decent here and I think priced fairly with the tech these have on board you would not see elsewhere too often.

 

HiFiMan Svanar Wireless LE

  • SVANAR WIRELESS Light Luxury Version: Ultimate HIFI TWS: Hymalaya DAC and Headphone Amp drive the Topology Diaphragm driver ★HYMALAYA R2R DAC developed by HIFIMAN received the 2022 VGP Gold Technology Award (Japan)
  • Hymalaya R2R Custom Ladder DAC+ Headphone Amplifier Module: Total Harmonic Distortion: 0.52%(-60dB), 0.005%(-2dB); Undistorted Output: 54mW @16Ω, 45mW @32Ω; Max Output: @32R 1%=63mW
  • HIFIMAN Topology Diaphragm: The “Topology Diaphragm” refers to a diaphragm that features a special Nano particle coating applied to its surface. The result is a more natural and detailed sound than what is typically achieved with True Wireless earphones. The idea behind the new Topology Diaphragm was inspired by Dr.Fang Bian’s Ph.D. thesis that states, “Different Nano materials have different structures and each of those materials have its own properties.”Therefore, by carefully controlling the diaphragm surface structure we can yield different results that are superior in acoustic performance to a degree previously unobtainable.
  • ANC Deep Noise Cancellation. Immerse yourself in your own world of sound: The microphone accurately identifies noise, generating a reverse signal that reduces noise up to -35dB
  • Charging case designed to accommodate most silicone tips, including larger sizes: Most true wireless earphones cannot be charged when using larger-size silicone tips. The Svanar Wireless increases the internal space of the charging case, so there is no need to replace the silicone tips repeatedly when charging the earbuds. Inbox comes with 8 pairs of silicone tips.
  • 7hrs Uninterrupted listening; 28hrs Including the battery life of the charging case: Earbuds may be charged up to three times before needing to recharge the battery case.
  • Touch Operations

Tech Review – MagStand Selfie Stick Phone Tripod

The KraftGeek MagStand Selfie Stick Phone Tripod is an ideal kit for content creators and even just your average Joe soap so to speak.

Slim light and portable this can be carried in most tech bags or just a regular bag depending on your own personal set-up this would also fit in a laptop bag that has enough space inside and not just a laptop cover pouch, most laptop bags would suffice.

This is simple to use with no app installation required, as you will see in the video below there is a removable bluetooth switch and it is simple to use once paired to your smartphone.

The tripod legs are solid and can take the weight of your phone, some I have tried in the past had difficulty here depending on the angles the phone was at but no issue here, as a selfie stick this is perfect with the solid telescopic poole holding its own as it is when standing freely even with a heavy device attached.

Overall if you are a content creator or just an average user who like to take selfies and more this is an ideal solid piece of kit to have at your disposal and is light and portable and ideal for travelling.  This is also ideal if you work at a desk from home too so overall very useful for anyone and can be tilted and rotated to get the desired effect or finish you want in your photos
