The Green Energy Transition

The Green Energy Transition
That this Assembly notes several commitments in the Programme for Government to upscale renewable energy production; expresses concern that renewable energy generation has fallen annually since 2022; recognises that insufficient renewable energy infrastructure and ineffective planning policy are significant barriers to renewable energy expansion; affirms that unless addressed, Northern Ireland will fail to meet statutory climate targets; calls on the Minister for the Economy to introduce a new renewable energy support scheme to upscale onshore and offshore renewable energy production; and further calls on the Minister to work with the Minister for Infrastructure on a reform of planning policy to facilitate the development of renewable energy technology.
