The Ministry for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources of Ireland has launched the Energy Policy Green Paper for Ireland marking the beginning of a 10-week public consultation on the future shape of Ireland’s energy policy. The six Priority Themes of the Green Paper are: Empowering Energy Citizens; Markets, Regulation and Prices; Planning and Implementing Essential Energy Infrastructure; Ensuring a Balanced and Secure Energy Mix; Putting the Energy System on a Sustainable Pathway; and Driving Economic Opportunity.
According to the Ministry, the promotion of energy efficiency is an area where actions can be taken to reduce energy costs. Initiatives such as the new €70m National Energy Efficiency Fund will act as a catalyst to develop energy efficiency projects in the market and to enhance the level of finance available to support the clear energy and cost saving opportunity that exists for public and commercial sector organisations.
