Current Issues Affecting Trade in Ireland: Enterprise Ireland
Mr. Leo Clancy:
Mr. Leahy mentioned heat pumps. There is also air water and ground storage, electric steam boilers, heat recovery technologies, mechanical vapour recompression, evaporators and biomass boilers. I would scrutinise matters too much by drilling down into those technologies, but those are the kinds of things involved.
On the energy monitoring side, it is logging the use of electricity, gas, diesel, oil and water. It is about all of the things relating to energy use whereby if we knew more, we might do better. The first scheme has a smaller limit of €50,000 because it involves energy monitoring. The other involves up to €1 million for the decarbonisation of an individual enterprise.
