The Limerick Clare Energy Agency (LCEA) was established with investment from Limerick and Clare
Local Authorities. The agency is also fortunate to receive sponsorship and support from Local
Development Companies in Limerick and Clare. The University of Limerick provides office
accommodation on campus at the Foundation Building.

The agency is here to provide energy efficiency solutions to organisations seeking sustainable
operation and development. The agency will have a wide remit, to provide energy services to all
economic sectors in the region.

The Limerick Clare Energy Agency is one of 13 other agencies that form an all island association.

any external assistance.
