Intent: A re-think of proposed RHO scheme to enable the scale of the ambition for this sector in Ireland is to be realised. This requires clarity on the scheme and visibility of the longer-term trajectory of future obligations (to 2045) and a full economic, legal and regulatory impact assessment of the proposed approach, its impact on customers and ability to achieve its stated objective. EU Database and RED III compliance constraints must also be addressed.

Intent: For government to reconsider the proposed implementation of the RHO. We consider this to be necessary if the scale of the ambition for this sector is to be realised and, adverse impacts on customers and the market are to be minimised. Clarity on the scheme and visibility of the longer-term trajectory of likely obligation levels out to 2045 (when the scheme is currently indicated to run), as well as the likely impact on customers, should be fully assessed and published.
