Shannon Energy Consultants
Sustainability ConsultantsLimerick, Ireland
"Clear as water, grounded as oak — and quietly inspiring." At Shannon Energy Consultants, we’re a grounded, client-first consultancy built on experience — not marketing. We began on-site, on the tools, in the dust and draughts — working alongside homeowners, builders, and developers across Ireland.
That hands-on foundation shapes how we work today: we speak plainly, show up early, and offer advice that stands up to the real world. Now, we combine deep technical knowledge with certified expertise — including BER certification, NZEB qualifications, and NSAI-accredited testing — to help our clients meet Ireland’s modern energy standards with clarity and trust. From Building Energy Rating (BER) assessments and airtightness testing to retrofit strategy, ventilation validation, and Part L compliance, we don’t just advise — we explain, measure, and guide.
David leads Shannon Energy as both founder and lead consultant. With certified expertise in BER assessments, airtightness testing, and retrofit strategy, he guides projects from first contact to final compliance — always with a hands-on, client-first approach. Colm is a cornerstone of Ireland’s retrofit landscape.
With over a decade of experience at South East Energy, he has led major residential upgrade schemes and contributed to pioneering EU-funded initiatives. His insight helps shape sustainable strategies from the ground up. Darragh heads up our on-site operations as Lead Site Surveyor.
