Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Third Report of the Citizens' Assembly: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 pm

Mr. Seán Armstrong:

We did a cost-optimal study and took our forecasts from the SEAI 15-year forecast of the cost of carbon. It starts off at around €20 per tonne and increases year on year. We applied 2% sensitivity to it by increasing it by that amount year on year. At the end of 30 years that meant an increase of 60%.
