Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
New Retrofitting Plan and the Built Environment: Discussion
Brian Leddin (Limerick City, Green Party) | Oireachtas source
I will pick up on the point raised by Mr. Barry regarding boilers. A condensing boiler may be installed to bring a house up to a particular BER level, but that might not be the correct decision for someone who may want to go the whole way eventually. Where are we at in respect of regulation to phase out fossil fuel boilers? There is something in the climate action plan about it, if I am not mistaken. There might be an end date. The representatives are probably much more familiar with that element of it than I am, but it is obviously something that needs to happen as soon as possible to meet the net-zero and 2030 targets.
