Mr. Robert Watt:

As the Deputy is aware, there is a significant target for increasing the number of electric vehicles. It is 4,000 now, but it is due to go up to 500,000 by 2030. We will need a massive increase in the number of charging points. I believe the ESB produced a paper recently - I am not familiar with the details. It outlines how this will be implemented. It requires considerable infrastructure.
