33 Mr. Flood asked the Minister for Transport, Energy and Communications the percentage of total ESB requirements which could be produced by alternative energy sources by the year 2,000 on the basis of present policies. [6526/95]
The Deputy will be aware that on announcing the results of the alternative energy requirement scheme in early March, I promised a full assessment of the implications of the scheme with a view to setting revised targets and a strategy to achieving them. Until further targets are set, it is not possible to estimate the total electricity that could be generated from alternative sources by the year 2,000.
