Mr. McGarry mentioned that the port company has been talking to EirGrid. It was suggested at one stage that the amount of wind energy we could generate would literally blow the grid if we were to try to bring it onshore. Have we been having conversations as to how to harness all of this phenomenal potential energy? I know that green hydrogen is part of the mix. We cannot necessarily bring in energy generated off the west coast of Ireland and drop it in Berlin via an interconnector. I am not an electrical engineer but my understanding is that it is not as easy as one might think.
