- EPA funding of €6.9 million has been awarded for 11 new research projects to address climate and environmental challenges.
- The funded research will address key knowledge gaps and support the development of vital research capacity in Ireland.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) today announced new research awards of €6.9 million for environmental and climate research in Ireland. This brings to €21.4 million the total research funding announced by the EPA to date in 2025.
The funding will support 11 new and innovative projects, which will involve 98 staff and students across 27 organisations.

Understanding the impacts of noise pollution on health and the environment; Exploring young people’s attitudes, knowledge and actions around climate change; Mechanisms to support scaling-up of the circular economy; Understanding how exposure to future sea level rise could impact population dynamics and Studying remote Irish islands to enhance our understanding of the response and resilience of offshore environments to climate change.
Announcing the funding, Dr Eimear Cotter, Director of the EPA’s Office of Evidence and Assessment, said: “The increased scale of research funding being announced by the EPA in 2025 reflects the critical role that research and innovation play in addressing climate change, environmental pollution and biodiversity decline. This new EPA funding will help develop innovative solutions to support Ireland’s response to these challenges. Congratulations to the successful researchers and I look forward to hearing more about these exciting projects in the years ahead.”
