Question 382: To ask the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources if he will investigate the possibility of having community organisations and/or sports clubs, who have installed wind turbines or intend to install wind turbines reclassified as voluntary customers who will be in a position to supply power to the national grid and therefore qualify for the higher rate of payment in respect thereof; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

My Department is working with the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland to develop a comprehensive mircrogenerations framework and the issues highlighted by the Deputy will be considered in that context. The development of a vibrant microgeneration sector is an important component of building societal acceptance of energy infrastructure and ownership of Ireland's renewable energy targets.
