275 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources if he has issued instruction to encourage the generation of alternative energies; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31511/04]
Amharc ar fhreagraThere is already clear Government support for alternative energy. I am currently awaiting reports from the Bioenergy Strategy Group, the Combined Heat and Power Policy Group and the Renewable Energy Development Group. The groups' reports are due very shortly and will form the basis of my future policy decisions on the increased penetration of renewable energy technologies in the electricity market.
