I propose to take Questions Nos. 257 and 258 together.
This issue is under the remit of my colleague the Minister for Environment, Climate and Communications, whose Department is in the process of developing a policy framework for electricity storage.
I understand that the framework, which will be published in Q2 this year, will set out plans to incentivise the development of electricity storage products capable of beneficial integration into the grid.
I am also informed that support for the purchase of energy storage capacity on farms is currently available through the Targeted Agriculture Modernisation Scheme administered by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
