Byrne Ó Cléirigh were appointed by Sustainable Energy Ireland
(SEI) to work with the SEI on the
development of a new Sustainable Energy Services
Department.
Sustainable Energy Ireland pursues, on behalf of
Government, the policies laid out in the 1999
Green Paper on Sustainable Energy, the National
Development Plan (2000 - 2006) and the National
Climate Change Strategy to meet Ireland's
commitment to limit greenhouse gas emissions to a
13% increase by 2008 - 2012.
Byrne Ó Cléirigh proactively partnered with the Sustainable
Energy Ireland to develop and implement a
work programme for the period 2001 - 2006 to
increase the penetration of renewable and CHP
energy in Ireland and to work towards the targets
set out in Irish Government policy (+ 500 MW
Renewable Energy capacity by 2006 and + 250 MWE CHP
capacity by 2010).
The elements under development in the work
programme are / will be funded with resources
allocated in the National Development Plan. The
programme encompasses:
 |
Renewable Energy -
including onshore & offshore wind, biomass, wave and solar
(thermal, passive and photovoltaic); |
|
Combined Heat & Power -
fossil & alteranative energy sources; |
|
District Heating;
Electrical infrastructure for renewable energy developments; |
|
Energy efficient transport
technologies, systems, management and usage patterns. |
Byrne
