Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Engagement with the Commission for Regulation of Utilities

Mr. Jim Gannon:

It would not. EirGrid has the existing data centres connected and has signed agreements with them. It has the contracted ramp, which is what data centres may increase their usage by, in that connection contract. EirGrid would predict how much the data centres might ramp or increase their usage within that.

We will come back in writing. We are also happy to sit down sit down with the Deputy and have a brief session on it to make sure she has the information on it.
