Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Retrofitting Schemes: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland

Ms Margie McCarthy:

We know the Covanta waste-to-energy site is ready to support being a heat source for a district heating network. South Dublin County Council has plans. It is in discussions with anchor tenants on design. This is with regard to becoming a signal for investment in district heating. We have spoken about the potential of district heating to be able to provide cost-effective decarbonised heat for the larger Georgian areas of Dublin that are extremely difficult to retrofit.
