The main source for information on transport emissions is from Sustainable Energy Ireland (SEI). The most recent figures available from SEI relate to 2006 and they indicate that Public Service Vehicles constituted 3% of the Transport Sector share, or 1.02% of Ireland's entire energy related CO2 emissions. This data is available from SEI's Energy in Transport 2007 Report, located online at:http://www.sei.ie/index.asp?locID=1499&docID=1431.
