Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Shannon Foynes Port Company: Chairperson Designate (Resumed)

Mr. David McGarry:

We must take it one step at a time. There is an enormous opportunity but there are many steps. In terms of the grid points, if the power can be brought ashore, there are various transmission points in Moneypoint and Tarbert that can be utilised.

That on-land infrastructure will be developed over time by the ESB network management and by EirGrid. They will develop, upscale and enhance that to move that ultimately to the UK and France.
