Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Energy Prices: Discussion

Mr. Nicholas Tarrant:

The transmission system development is a responsibility of EirGrid. EirGrid makes the case for a new substation, perhaps to do with low growth, for the transmission network. It takes it through to a certain stage of development and then it comes across to us for detailed design, procurement and construction, and we own the asset over its lifetime. Once we come down to distribution level, where there are also substations, that responsibility end to end is with us.
