PROJECT NAME:
Strategic Environmental Assessment Screening Report
Evaluation of Potential Environmental Implications of each Strategy Modification This amendment clarifies the stakeholder who identified a requirement and provides technical insight to the charging stations, rather than just stating the number count. It does not introduce any significant environmental effects not already considered and mitigated against in the SEA process.
Proposal
Summary of Modification
The following text under "Future Charging Infrastructure Requirements" in Section 4.0 has been amended: Zero Emission Vehicles Ireland identified a requirement for a total Power Output of 26,581 Kw based on the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AIFR) by 2030. Therefore, the delivery of Scenario 2 which includes for a total of 284 charging stations with the capacity to support between 19,810 Kw and 30,160 Kw (depending on the number of charge points included at fast charging station) is best placed to deliver on the AFIR Power Output targets. The following red text under "Key Siting Principles" in Section 5.0 has been included: Ultra-Fast En-route Charging will be available in the Cork City region and along the National Road serving the city (i.e. M8 Dublin Road) and the most appropriate sites will be identified by Transport Infrastructure Ireland as part of their wider study looking at supporting electric vehicle charging infrastructure along the entire national road network. The following red text has been added to the end of "Cork City South (including the city centre)" in Section 5.0: It is worth noting that the delivery of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations within covered car parks will need to ensure their design reflects any potential fire safety concerns and direct consultation with the Fire and Building Control Department is recommended. The following red text has been added to the end of the "Summary" in Section 5.0: It is worth noting that the delivery of Electric Vehicle Charge Points on private lands that are publicly accessible (such as shopping centres, hotels/restaurants, service stations, sport grounds, tourist attractions, etc..) will continue to be encouraged through the development planning process.
