There are separate schemes. Some are SEAI, LEOs or Enterprise Ireland. Some are for large companies and others are for small companies. The main thing we want to do is get information out there so that companies know what is available. Some are for energy audits and others are for capital investment. There might be a case for streamlining the schemes. That is one option. Rather than trying to redefine all of the schemes, the important thing is to make sure that they are accessible for businesses and businesses know they are available and take them up.
