Mr. Mark Foley:

We are procuring 450 MW of emergency generation where we basically park the rule book and say we will do it a different way because we need to, so there is something in that. Government passed legislation in record time and a construct was developed which we are working on. We are doing something here that is very unorthodox because we have an emergency. That is just a point. We should reframe the capacity and the numeration mechanisms so we get projects on time with the right technology.

We should have a nationwide education campaign on energy reduction and climate action, not dissimilar to the way we captured the imagination of the country around Covid-19. That was very successful, particularly in the first six months of the Covid crisis. It was exemplary, and credit is due to the Government at the time.

We need to accelerate offshore wind because we get wind out there which we do not have on land some of the time. We have to do everything we can to start getting offshore wind farms built. We need to accelerate urgently more batteries and systems services. Every 1% of system non-synchronous penetration, SNSP, we get, we leverage existing renewable plant that is there. It is invested in its own cost. We need to get the SNSP levels up. The way we do that is we get new system services aggressively onto the system so this can then drive the higher levels of SNSP.

Lastly, the demand-side units are not delivering for us. We have 500 MW of contractor capacity, approximately 130 of which shows up. It is not acceptable. We need to get them up to 80 or 90% or tear up their contracts and have an alternative contract framework. They have got away with this for too long. They are either in the mix and will help us or they are not. They cannot be half in and half out. Those are my suggestions. Thank you for the opportunity.
