288. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform the proportion of contracts awarded under the Office of Government Framework for the Provision of Electricity Supply to Public Sector Bodies in Ireland that were 100% renewable. [22666/23]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe proportion of 100% renewable contracts awarded by the Office of Government Procurement (OGP) under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the Provision of Electricity to Public Sector Bodies is 93%. (representing 25% of the total monetary value of all contracts awarded).
All OGP electricity contracts require suppliers to provide minimum percentages of renewable electricity (45% in 2023, rising to 50% in 2024). In addition to this minimum requirement, in using the OGP arrangement individual Public Sector Bodies can opt to seek bids to contract for 100% renewable electricity.
