Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications

North-South Interconnector: EirGrid

Mr. John Fitzgerald:

That might have been driven. I cannot comment on that specific matter. We will come back to the Senator if there is more detail on that.

Regarding wind turbines, the interaction is more aeronautical in terms of the impact it has on transmission lines. We have been engaging with that industry to discuss having 2.5 to 3.5 times the radius or wing length. So we are taking about not siting them closer than that.
