On policy, there is a narrative that the auction price cap was set at €150 per MWh. It should be noted that is a cap. Wind Energy Ireland has suggested that should be between €95 and €115. Many of the auctions in Europe have come in at too low a price because of uncertainty have failed. We need to be sensible about it.
We are setting that correct strategy and what Mr. Carr is talking about in Rosslare fits exactly with that.
