Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Engagement with the Commission for Regulation of Utilities

Mr. Jim Gannon:

Yes. As I have said, we must make sure that we decarbonise the existing demand as we also look to the future. It will take work on our part to encourage that change to more renewable systems and more efficiency in these facilities but it is also likely to involve multiple Departments and agencies. I agree with the Senator that this is a key risk we need to tackle.
