Renault and Nissan will supply electric cars to the Irish market within two years as part of a government plan to have 10 percent of vehicles in the country electric by 2020, Ireland’s Energy Minister, Eamon Ryan, announced Friday. “Today’s initiative will transform our streets, will cut carbon emissions and change the face of transport in Ireland”. The Irish government hopes to sign similar agreements with other auto manufacturers to ensure that around 230,000 electric vehicles are on Irish roads by 2020.
