Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Energy Poverty: Discussion
Ms Clare O'Connor:
There is no civil society representative. We need to see an energy poverty Act that defines "energy poverty" and sets legally binding targets for reducing it. Part of that could involve collecting data on the warmer homes scheme to see the impact of that.
I can send the committee more information on the Danish rebalancing of heat pump bills. It is an interesting issue we should look into.
