Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 November 2024
229. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Minister for Transport the reason an electric vehicle model (details supplied) does not appear on the triple E register; if the model will be included on the triple E register for 2024; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [44785/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraSEAI’s Triple E Register is a list of products approved as being energy efficient. It should be noted that for equipment to be placed on the Triple E Register, the manufacturer of the equipment itself must submit an application to the SEAI on behalf of said equipment.
The application is then reviewed and, if successful, approved and placed on the register.
The Triple E register is maintained by the SEAI directly and as such the Department of Transport has no role in the management of the Register nor in the approval process of any particular EV or other products.
If the manufacturer of a piece of equipment such as an EV wishes to receive an update on the progress of any application they have submitted, they should contact the SEAI directly.
