Among those is a tax on SUVs, a ban on new data centres and a boiler scrappage scheme.
The SEAI says the current scale and pace of delivery mean it's uncertain the ambitious targets outlined in the Climate Action Plan will be met.
Portlaoise's Bob Flavin says it's just another tax on an already-highly taxed industry:
