Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

Gas Networks Ireland's Vision 2050: Discussion

Mr. Brendan Murphy:

It is not reliant on technological development but, rather, on getting the right framework in place so that the proven technology can be implemented at scale. In fact, the consultation the UK Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy has undertaken focuses precisely on that point, namely, the type of regime that should be put in place to incentivise the completion of large volumes of carbon capture and storage. It is a legal regulatory framework issue, not a technology issue.
