I do often wonder with this kind of thing whether an unspoken aspect of it is about not depleting the country's fossil fuels

From what I understand Ireland has very little natural gas, very little coal and a not particularly large amount of peat. If they didn't shift towards importing all of that would be gone in the very near future.

It's a bit weird how it gets branded as a solely green move when there's clearly other motives for it.
