Deputy Carol Nolan asked the Minister for Climate, Energy and the Environment if he is aware of the concerns of the liquid fuel home heating sector that the obligation rates planned for the forthcoming renewable heat obligation are too low to have a meaningful impact on carbon emissions and its view that a more ambitious target of a 20% blend would be equivalent to deploying 160,000 heat pumps overnight, but at current rates this would take 26 years to achieve; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
