Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Biomethane Renewable Gas: Discussion
Dr. Fiona Thorne:
We also need to be cognisant of existing national and EU policies. Food security is one policy we have but we also have energy security. The REPowerEU policy at a European level is all about trying to decrease our dependence on imported energy. There is a balancing act between food security and energy security but that is the reality of the world we live in today.
