- With 94% of Ireland’s heat energy coming from imported fossil fuels and Irelands new climate change ambitions committing to slash fossil fuel emissions in half in the next 8-years. Dr Clare Kambamettu explores if and how this can be achieved without leaving many of us out in the cold.
------
Because Ireland doesn’t produce our own fossil fuels, Ireland is locked into a global market which puts us at the mercy of other countries. It often means rising prices and could in the future lead to shortages. With fuel prices already on the rise, how will this affect how we keep ourselves warm in the winter?
In this episode, Dr Clare Kambamettu will explore if and how advanced technologies in the areas of district heating, home retrofits and even tapping into geothermal heat could be used to decarbonise Ireland’s heat supply and become more energy independent.
