In line with the commitment in the Programme for Government, my Department and Sustainable Energy Ireland are consulting with the Commission for Energy Regulation with a view to identifying and removing barriers, including regulatory barriers, to the deployment of high efficiency Combined Heat and Power and district heating. I intend to bring forward proposals in the near future in light of the outcome of these consultations and taking account of the views of all stakeholders.
