Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications

North-South Interconnector: EirGrid

11:30 am

Mr. Fintan Slye:

The east-west interconnector is approximately 260 km and it has a 500 MW power capacity link. The North-South interconnector is approximately 140 km end to end and the requirement is a 1,500 MW power transfer capacity. That power capacity is more than twice that of the Ireland-France interconnector and three times that of the east-west interconnector.
