I welcome Dr. Geiss. It is a great opportunity for Ireland and the issue is one of the main focuses of the committee. Renewables are rightly a hot topic because so much could change in our energy needs and in our economy. All the heavy hitters from Europe will attend the conference, including Marie Donnelly, head of renewables research innovation in the European Commission. Both energy providers and energy regulators will be in the same room and it will be up to MEPs and other parliamentarians to ask the right questions because the right people will be in the room. This is a great opportunity for consumers, providers, customers and regulators to come together, ask the right questions, and, hopefully, get some of the right answers.
