Wind programme evaluation

Summary

Colley asks when wind generation results will be available. Collins says the five-year programme began in 1980 and full results are expected in 1985.

When is it expected that the evaluation of the wind generation programme will be available? I know that the programme is only getting under way this year but perhaps the Minister could give this information.

Edward Collins Mr. E. Collins Fine Gael

It is a five-year programme. At this point only two machines are in operation but by the end of the year there will be nine wind machines operating. The five-year programme was initiated in 1980 so the results in full will not be available until 1985.
