Mr. Declan Meally:

That issue arose in the context of previous questions. My colleague Dr. O'Grady spoke about the setting up of the ZEVI office. The local authority County and City Management Association, CCMA, is also involved in discussing these ideas. We have considered it. We have spoken to and been engaging with the likes of Fingal County Council, which does this using street lamps, but there is not enough power going to the street lamps to be able to bring it to charge a car. There are different technologies emerging. There are opportunities to consider ducts or a technology that is coming out which involves an arm attached to the side of the house that can be swung out to drop a cable without interfering with anybody. Some of those are coming through the SEAI through the grant schemes. These technology opportunities and solutions are emerging. The issue of ensuring that people who do not have off-street parking can charge their EV is being considered.
