Teagasc Submission to the Public Consultation on the Potential for Domestic Offsetting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Ireland
Teagasc Submission to the Public Consultation on the Potential for Domestic Offsetting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Ireland

The EPA has commissioned a Scoping Study to examine whether a Domestic Offsetting scheme for greenhouse gas emissions in Ireland would be economically viable and would provide a cost effective and efficient way of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Domestic offsetting is a method of enabling business to participate in a carbon market by receiving credits for the development of projects or schemes which reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Irish sectors not covered by the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (non-ETS). As part of that study, Energy Services along with Ecofys are holding a public consultation and inviting submissions from all parties that may have an interest in or knowledge of Domestic Offsetting.
