Future gas consumption in Ireland
Future gas consumption in Ireland
low-carbon networks in Ireland, does this mean that all biomethane produced in Ireland will be consumed in Ireland for electricity and heat production (or for consumption in transport)? In other words, will Ireland meet its national targets with its own biomethane production?

Response from Padraig Fleming: Currently we think we will meet about 25% of our current gas demand from biomethane. It is difficult to be certain about the exact volume of gas that can be produced this early in the development of the industry. Our expectation is that we will have to meet the balance of our decarbonisation with the use of hydrogen, which will take longer to develop.
