If I may come in again briefly, reference was made a number of times to anaerobic digestion, AD, which is getting particularly bad press at the moment, some of which is very unfair. The growth of AD is not being managed strategically or in an organised fashion. Could there be a role for some of the organisations and maybe Bord na Móna to manage strategic growth in that area or to look at managing smart energy across the island? At the moment it is happening in an ad hoc, sporadic way and is not controlled or managed. There is no silver bullet that will fix this energy crisis and address the renewables issue but someone needs to take this in hand.
