Mr. Denis O'Sullivan:

The way we approach the matter is there is no one fuel and we should not be dependent on any one technology for our transport needs. There should be a suite of technologies. CNG is readily available and there are extensive gas networks in Ireland and other European countries. Even for cross-jurisdiction transport requirements, CNG makes an awful lot of sense. There has not yet been the desired level of uptake of hydrogen, even though there is much talk of it and much work being undertaken. It will be post 2030 before there will be a significant development of it. Even then, with the development of hydrogen and hydrogen being brought into the transport space, there will be a requirement for more than one solution. We should not hang our hat on one technology.
