Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

Energy Plant Certification: Commission for the Regulation of Utilities

Mr. John Melvin:

Essentially, the business case is to take wet matter and dry it and it then becomes valuable but burning that valuable fuel is an entirely different business case and leads to an entirely different justification of the heat load to the previous business case which was burning a very cheap imported fuel. It is the big difference, and the major driver of the difference, between the 100% certificate in 2012 and the 18% certificate in 2019.
