The construction of new renewable energy powered electricity generating plants is supported by the Renewable Energy Feed-in Tariff (REFIT) programme, administered by my Department. The terms and conditions of REFIT were published on the Department's website (www.dcmnr.ie) on the 1st May last. The programme does not allocate grant aid. The reference price values and improved indexation permitted in the terms and conditions are capable of delivering projects without recourse to grant aid.
