Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Supporting a Just Transition: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. John MacNamara:

It is difficult to state a simple number per hectare or tonnes per hectare. There are figures on fully cutaway land. Approximately 6 tonnes per hectare per year in emissions flow from the site. A definitive saving number, however, will take a little longer to work out, notwithstanding that the removal of the emissions will be achieved before sequestration begins.
