The Energy and Environment Review 2010

Abstract

The Energy and Environment Review 2010 reviews trends in energy use and emissions to the environment for the period 1990-2008 and projects these trends for the period 2009-2025. We show results for two alternative scenarios of how the Irish economy may develop in the future. In the two baseline scenarios, we include current energy and environmental policies, and likely changes in these policies. In a number of cases, we discuss alternative policy developments.
