Deputy John Curran asked the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment the estimated amount of percentage points by which Ireland will miss the target on renewable energy services in view of the fact it is widely reported that Ireland will not meet the target of 16% of energy requirements from renewable sources by 2020 as set out in a legally binding target set by the 2009 EU renewable energy directive; the estimated amount each percentage point below this target is likely to cost the State in fines payable to the EU; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
