Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Foreign Affairs Council and UN Security Council: Engagement with Minister for Foreign Affairs (12 Jul 2022)

Simon Coveney: ...what happens next year. The truth is that we are not going to have the offshore wind projects built for next year that we certainly will have by 2030. We are not going to have the solar capacity in place or the liquefied natural gas, LNG, plants operating. This means we must put contingency arrangements in place. Some people seem to be complacent on the basis of the false premise that...

Eamon Ryan: ...to make are in the Shannon area, in north Kerry. Should we buy into fossil gas, where there is not real security due to such things as that Texas terminal shutting down and the Norwegian strike? LNG is always high risk. Should we go into hydrogen, where we convert that offshore wind that we have in abundance into hydrogen that we could use in the likes of Moneypoint, Tarbert, Aughinish...

Written Answers — Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Energy Infrastructure (7 Jul 2022)

Eamon Ryan: ...importing fracked gas was approved by Government and published in May 2021. The policy statement provides that, pending the outcome of this review, it would not be appropriate for the development of any LNG terminals in Ireland to be permitted or proceeded with.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs: European Union Humanitarian Crisis Response to Russia's Invasion of Ukraine: Department of Foreign Affairs (6 Jul 2022)

Simon Coveney: ...is some type of easy alternative to Russian gas. There are alternatives but putting them in place will take time and is not easy. I believe we will see an awful lot more liquified natural gas, LNG, infrastructure being built in the European Union as well, and for good reason in terms of energy security for gas. We will see an acceleration of investments in renewables. The European...

Select Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Estimates for Public Services 2022
Vote 29 - Environment, Climate and Communications (Supplementary) (6 Jul 2022)

Eamon Ryan: If I may finish my point, that very high price of gas related to particular circumstances, including a Texas liquified natural gas, LNG, plant being under repair and unable to ship, as well as a threatened gas strike in Norway. That sent the price really high. The price will probably come back down. We are assessing this daily, particularly in terms of the forward market. Brent crude oil...

Jerry Buttimer: ...security and supply. We have to be conscious that the majority of our gas supply is coming via a pipeline from the UK and mindful that we do not, as far as I know, have any gas storage facilities or a LNG terminal in this country. This potentiality raises all sorts of outcomes of which we must be cognisant. The publication date of the report on energy security supply is imminent or may...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Anaerobic Digestion: Discussion (5 Jul 2022)

...of gas derived from fossil fuels for heating and to provide low-cost and potentially carbon-negative solutions for heavy goods vehicle, HGV, transport fuels, such as bio-compressed natural gas, bio-CNG, and bio-liquified natural gas, bio-LNG, from biomethane. Beyond fuels, biomethane has potential in the chemical industry as a source of methanol or hydrogen. The point is that AD is...

Michael Fitzmaurice: ...generators will be gas powered. The Minister of State might let me know if that is right. They will probably be on the east coast because the gas pipeline is mostly in the east. What I cannot fathom is that we do not want an LNG terminal below in the Chair's area but we are happy to take it in through a pipe from the UK or wherever else. It is all right if it comes through a pipe but...

Sharon Keogan: I, too, welcome the Minister of State. Next September, An Bord Pleanála is due to make a decision on the planning application submitted by Shannon LNG Limited for a proposed liquefied natural gas terminal on the Tarbert-Ballylongford land bank. The company behind the proposed plant has stated that the Shannon LNG terminal could be built in 12 months, and could even be built to...

Annual Transition Statement: Statements (15 Jun 2022)

Bríd Smith: ...and lobbies conducing a public relations blitz in the days following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. We see the same results to some extent in this House, with the clamour by some Deputies for LNG and their support for the Barryroe oil field. These are the same voices that share the same contempt for the climate crisis and the same greed that informs these campaigns globally. My...

Paschal Donohoe: ...of the very specific issue being raised by the Deputy and, indeed, Deputy Griffin has also raised this issue with me on a number of occasions. The Government has a clear view on the role that LNG can play in the future and I know that the Minister, Deputy Ryan, the Taoiseach, and the party leaders will consider the options that are needed to ensure we have better energy supply in the time...

Energy Security: Motion [Private Members] (15 Jun 2022)

Danny Healy-Rae: ...of electricity has gone up daily. The Government should reverse this decision and utilise every bit of turf we have in the country. Turf kept this country going during the Second World War. Shannon LNG should also get the licence to import gas from western sources such as the United States and other countries that would be minded to sell gas to us. It will not cost the country 1 cent as...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Climate Change Policy (2 Jun 2022)

Bríd Smith: I will sum matters up by saying that any attempt to develop an LNG terminal in this country will be met with the ire of the climate movement that the Minister once represented. I feel he will let the members of that movement down in vast numbers if this development goes ahead. It cannot just be down to an energy review and An Bord Pleanála; it has to be down to our national and global...

Bríd Smith: ...beliefs and I think he holds them sincerely, but they clash with the continued push from many Deputies and people outside this House, such as local councillors and other business interests, for the LNG terminal at Shannon. An Bord Pleanála will make a decision on that soon. I would argue that the board has been hugely compromised in recent weeks, according to information that has...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Energy Prices (2 Jun 2022)

Eamon Ryan: ...system we have is that this system is needed to invest in switching to alternatives. We will continue to need gas infrastructure and gas power generation, although not liquefied natural gas, LNG, in my view. We will need back-up gas power generation that uses less gas. Switching away from the use of gas is the critical way of protecting householders. In both our offshore generation and...
