Dr. Ciaran Byrne:
The climate action plan calls for 500,000 cost optimum or B2 equivalents. So the first stage of the targets is 2025 when we will have 83,000 BER B2s and the remaining BER B2-equivalents made up to 120,000. At present 32,000 are done to BER B2 which means we need to do about 25,000 per year for the next two years to get to our 2025 target. From that point forward the ramp-up rate is up around 70,000 BER B2s per year out to the end of the decade.
