Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Retrofitting Schemes: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland
Ms Margie McCarthy:
We have done this before as a country. We have rolled out system-wide networks and we know how to do it. It is a different type of technology but the strategy technology is fairly simple. It is a matter of the acceptance and commitment to doing it and raising the finances. Whilst those decisions are being pulled together and recommendations are being considered for them, we at SEAI are trying to get in place this area mapping so that when those decisions are ready to be made we will be ready with the information to say across the country these are the highest candidate areas, and when we get to the next stage that these are the next candidate areas, as we roll out climate action plan targets over the period up to 2050.
