It has also set itself an ambitious energy savings target, attempting to reduce its final energy consumption by 20% compared to 2005. Ireland has made good progress towards its targets. However, despite this progress Ireland is falling short of its national sub-targets, and efforts must accelerate to meet these by 2020.
