Renewable Energy Ireland (REI) has today (Thursday, May 6) published ‘40by30’, a roadmap to an Ireland where 40% of heat can come from renewables by 2030.
According to REI, this would reduce Ireland’s CO2 emissions by 7% annually, in line with the climate bill.
40% of Ireland’s heat can be provided by renewables
This plan was developed by XD Consulting on behalf of REI and with the advice of organisations working in district heating, bioenergy, heat pumps, renewable gas and geothermal.
The plan outlines that 40% of Ireland’s heat can be provided by renewable sources primarily from bioenergy, heat pumps, renewable gas and district heating networks.
