How can having the interconnector today, 16 June 2015, be a saving when there is an excess in supply; when oil and coal prices, on which we are predominantly dependent, are much more stable than they were; and we have a huge surplus of wind? How can the construction of an interconnector today be of any benefit to us given that we have a surplus of electricity today?
