QUESTION NO. 24

QUESTION: Councillor Eoin O'Broin

Is the councils target of 33% improvement in the councils energy efficiency by 2020 (Slide 4 of presentation given at September Council meeting) to be achieved by 1st January 2020 or 31st December 2020? How is this 33% improvement in efficiency to be measured e.g. is it relative to a baseline or business as usual scenario for total energy use?

REPLY:

The 33% energy reduction required must be achieved by end December 2020. Reduction of energy used is measured against the energy used in the baseline year of 2006 in line with the other Dublin authorities.
