This section details the Regulatory
approvals in connection with CHP in Ireland
Legislative & Regulatory Map
There are a large number of licences and approvals
that need to be obtained in order to construct and operate a
CHP facility, each of which is required under a specific piece
of legislation.
Information on the legislative context, as
well as specific details on the process to obtain each of these
licences and approvals, is provided via this website and this
is divided into four distinct sections.
Application forms and details of how to apply for these licences
and approvals are provided within each section. Click on a licence
below for further information.
This Legislative
Map is based on material from a report by Arthur Cox Solicitors and
ERM Environmental Resources Management Ireland Limited an "Evaluation
of the Existing Legislation and Regulation affecting new CHP facility
installation in Ireland" commissioned by Sustainable Energy
Ireland.
The Irish CHP Association's Online
Evaluation Tool is very simple to use and will give a reasonable indication
of the feasibility (and payback time) of a CHP solution based on basic
information about your current site energy consumption, costs, and site
operating hours. Click
