Iarnród Éireann Climate Action Plan

Iarnród Éireann’s corporate Climate Action Plan 2023 to 2030 lays out the pathway to the company achieving emissions reductions of 51% by 2030.
The ambitious plan will be delivered while rail services are expanded, with passenger journeys of 80 million per annum targeted by 2030, up from a pre-COVID high of 50.1 million journeys, and a doubling of rail freight volumes anticipated.
The 51% emissions reduction will be achieved through:

  • Reduced reliance on diesel through alternative fuels on existing fleets
  • Transitioning to electric-powered fleet
  • Green energy generation and corporate purchasing power agreements
  • Fleet and building works to reduce energy consumption

Iarnród Éireann’s 2018 baseline combined Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions amounted to 144,400 tonnes of CO2.
These emissions account for approximately 1% of the total national transport emissions (SEAI).


Where do Iarnród Éireann’s emissions come from?


In 2022, diesel fuel consumed through rail and road operations accounted for 85% of the company’s overall emissions. Reducing its reliance on diesel fuel is critical to our decarbonisation pathway.

To meet our public sector target of 51% reduction in emissions by 2030, Iarnród Éireann must reduce its combined annual Scope 1 and 2 emissions to circa 70,800 tonnes, while growing the passenger and rail freight businesses at the same time. This in turn supports the overall national reduction in transport emissions.
