Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

Petroleum and Other Minerals Development (Amendment) (Climate Emergency Measures) Bill 2018: Discussion (Resumed)

11:00 am

Mr. Greg Muttitt:

The Deputy asked a factual question about the Germany case which I can clarify. He is referring to annual average and saying this is what we could get to without having any technological issues. Germany is at about 40% annual average and I believe it has reached 100% on an hourly basis. When he says 70% to 80%, that is an annual average.
