Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Anaerobic Digestion: Discussion

Mr. J.P. Prendergast:

I will make a point on the community aspect. Government has done it very well, through SEAI, under the the somatic cell count, SCC, scheme. The scheme has been very informative on the renewable energy sector. It could probably be extended to include the likes of anaerobic digestion and biomethane and their impact on communities. The model works very well and should be considered.
