Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Energy - Ambition and Challenges: Discussion

Mr. Noel Cunniffe:

Absolutely. On the question of hybrid specifically, we absolutely need to overcome the regulatory barriers. The key element that hybrid seeks to deliver is more grid capacity. I mentioned that the EirGrid Shaping Our Electricity Future document looks to increase the amount of capacity we have in our electricity grid. There are 48 projects called out in that and we do not yet have delivery dates. We need resources to get those delivered from EirGrid and ESB Networks as soon as possible.
