Description

The Ireland Biomass Market is expected to grow at a strong CAGR of 5.4% during the research period. Climate change and environmental consciousness have recently gained prominence in Ireland's policy, economic, and sociological scene. This has resulted in a growing emphasis on sustainable energy alternatives, particularly renewable sources such as biomass, which are regarded as critical in the transition to a low-carbon economy. Ireland has set lofty climate targets, most notably in the Climate Action and Low Carbon Development (Amendment) Act 2021, which requires the country to attain net-zero emissions by 2050. To reach these aims, the Irish government is focusing on lowering carbon emissions in important sectors such as transportation, industry, agriculture, and energy.

Public and business awareness of environmental issues has grown dramatically, fueling demand for sustainable practices. Consumers are growing more environmentally concerned, demanding greener energy sources and increased business responsibilities for sustainability. This cultural shift is reflected in the increasing popularity of renewable energy sources, such as biomass, as a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels. Furthermore, Ireland's commitment to the EU Green Deal and adherence to international agreements such as the Paris Agreement demonstrate the country's alignment with global efforts to combat climate change. Ireland is also implementing efforts to increase biodiversity and improve land management, ensuring that biomass production does not harm ecosystems or contribute to deforestation.

The biomass market in Ireland is driven by a complex interaction of macroeconomic factors such as global energy costs, government regulations, technical improvements, and agricultural and industrial demand. As a country committed to ambitious climate and energy goals, Ireland's biomass industry is expected to expand, especially if supportive policies, economic incentives, and sustainable feedstock availability all match.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
