I refer to baseload power and dispatchable power. What plans does EirGrid have in place to bring new sources on board given the fact that much of our power will be generated by wind and sun which are intermittent sources? What plans does EirGrid have in terms of having more secure sources in place as a back up for dispatchable power that will provide power when those other sources are not readily available? The weather will not always be like it was last Friday. It is good when we have that weather for the reasons Mr. McCormick just stated but there will be days when wind will not do the business for us and we might not have too much sun and we might have high demand.
